Geneva College
- Off-Campus Housing

They Seem Ok

I've never lived in one yet, but from when I visit they don't seem too horrible. Neither do they seem too terribly desirable either though.

Off-Campus = More Freedom

Living off campus has given me a lot more freedom to feel as if I am going to be an adult instead of feeling babied by the rules and restrictions of living on campus. Beaver Falls has a lot of rental properties that are fairly priced, especially if you have a few roommates to split the bills with. A lot of them are even within walking distance to campus. The only downside is that not just anyone can live off-campus. Only approved seniors, those who commute from home, or those living with a grad student or faculty member can live off-campus and for the 2012-2013 school year, no one other than commuters will be approved to live off-campus because of low enrollment numbers.

Great for Upperclassman

Geneva does not allow freshman to live off-campus, but they do offer 6 off-campus "houses" available to students for upperclassmen. I know plenty of seniors that live in houses in downtown Beaver Falls with a group of friends, and it is MUCH less expensive than paying room and board to live on campus. Plus, when you live off-campus you're not required to have a mea plan.
