Closing The Gap

Closing the Gap is a program designed to help prepare high school juniors and seniors for the college experience ahead. Students work with college faculty, campus staff, college students and mentors to develop the skills necessary to thrive in college. This typically takes place over the course of two semesters: Fall and Spring

Early College

The cost of higher education rises each year. One way to lower the price is by beginning college while you’re still in high school.

Geneva College’s Early College program allows high school students to take Geneva courses with Geneva professors—online or on campus—for a fraction of the cost. In addition, Geneva College has partnered with some Christian schools to offer classes in those schools taught by teachers qualified to instruct college-level courses.

Other Early College initiatives such as After High School: Your Transition to College, helps high school students understand calling and cultivate self-care stewardship.

Fly-In/Drive In

Geneva College regularly hosts workshops on campus, providing information and resources designed to prepare and equip school guidance counselors as they guide students in the college search. These events allow for idea sharing, networking, and, in some cases, opportunities to receive CEU credits toward ACSI Counselor certification. Each event also showcases Geneva College and the educational experience and majors it provides.

Speaker Series: GVALS

Geneva College invites prominent guests to campus each semester to support the educational endeavor in which students, faculty, and staff are engaged. Visitors include distinguished lecturers, well-known artists and musicians, best-selling authors, and leading religious figures. Through the GVALS speaker series, our community has an opportunity to hear various viewpoints of our guests and apply the Foundational Concepts principle, “to evaluate all knowledge critically, to gain from that which is true and to discard error.”

Co-Curricular Programming

We believe that students can greatly benefit from dedicated time to consider questions of calling, career, and the pursuit of a life well-lived with God. To support this, the Calling and Career Center offers programs like the new student Calling Summit, Coherence Sophomore Retreat, Coherence Fellows program, and Senior Launch, which complement the student's academic endeavors throughout their time at Geneva.

Calling and vocation programming that complements the academic curriculum

Geneva has calling and vocation programming in place for Faculty and Staff that complements the academic curriculum.

Clarke and Carson Faculty First-Year Seminar

The ministry of education at Geneva College is built on a committed Christian professoriate that conducts our course of studies under the reign of our King, the Lord Jesus Christ and His Word.

Our curriculum, from the core in the Christian Liberal Arts to comprehensive programs in the sciences and professions, continues to depend upon our development as faculty toward a fuller working understanding that from before Creation, all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge—in every field of study and discipline—are found in Christ. That is, in every aspect of wisdom and knowledge available to humanity, the Truth of Christ is already integral.

Geneva's Core Curriculum

The Core ensures a comprehensive education that is Christ-centered, practical, and purposeful.

By combining the major area of study with the core curriculum students learn to Integrate faith and learning and to think constructively and creatively. The curriculum helps students see God’s design in all things and encourages wholehearted community. Together Geneva students discover the compelling significance of God’s calling for their lives within their fields of study.

Student/Faculty Research Project Collaboration

Geneva provides an opportunity for academic collaboration and mentoring between students and faculty members. Meeting with their mentors regularly, students prepare a research project on a topic of interest in their field of study. After in-depth research and preparation, these students professionally present their projects during “Works of Our Hands Week.”
