Gold & White Alumni Grant
The vision of Geneva College is to inspire students to integrate faith in Christ into all aspects of life in the real world and to serve faithfully within their callings for Christ and country. For more than 170 years, Geneva has educated students in this way. We are pleased to offer the Gold & White Alumni Grant to college-bound students introduced to Geneva by alumni whose lives have been transformed. Alumni who make a connection with students during their college search can qualify the student for the grant.
Any prospective student introduced to Geneva by alumni before the student applies to Geneva will receive either:
- $4,000 Grant ($1,000 per year) to students introduced to Geneva during the student’s freshman, sophomore, or junior year of high school
OR
- $2,000 ($500 per year) to students introduced to Geneva during their senior year of high school
The Gold & White Alumni Grant is awarded in addition to all other scholarships and grants given by the College, excluding the Legacy Grant*, beginning with new, incoming students entering in fall 2019.
Make your referrals by going to geneva.edu/referrals or calling 724-847-6505.
*Legacy Grant is awarded to children and grandchildren of alumni.
Homecoming Highlights
Homecoming events took place across campus on October 5-6. The pedestrian walkway in the center of campus featured booths and food trucks, and all over campus, there were concerts, dinners, a zip-line, family activities, a tailgate party, football and soccer games and much more.
20 separate reunions gave alumni a chance to feel welcomed to their home away from home, re-connect and reminisce with friends and loved ones. Alumni and friends experienced a wonderful time remembering and making memories that last a lifetime. View photos from homecoming 2018 .
Save-the-date for Homecoming 2019: September 27-28. Class years ending in 4 and 9 will celebrate reunions. If you’re interested in joining a reunion planning committee, contact the Office of Alumni Relations.
