Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Most students have a car, can borrow a car, or can get a ride from someone with a car—so cars are the best transportation option. The Ride Board in the Student Center helps students connect with rides home, to the airport, or anywhere else. The board not only helps with convenience (and gas money), but it also helps students mingle.

While most students use cars, Beaver County has a good public bus system with fares under $3. Beaver County Transit Authority runs through Beaver Falls frequently, the nearest bus stop under a mile from campus. These buses can take you to the surrounding towns, to Pittsburgh, to the airport or train station, or anywhere else you need to go. Geneva’s small, well-lit campus and suburban location renders college-sponsored transportation unnecessary. Most necessities are within walking distance, and someone is always willing to help another student out by driving where he or she needs to go.

Meh, What Transportation

Geneva provides no transportation for it's students. Being a small Christian college, there is pretty much no need. There is Beaver County transit that will take you downtown for cheap, the ride takes forever. You are better off carpooling and finding rides for all your transportation needs

Public Transportation is amazing around Beaver Falls. The buses are running all day and they go right past Geneva and to all the closest shopping centers.
