Sus primeros estudios estuvieron destinados a la carrera eclesiástica. Así es que recibió formación inicial en el College de la Marche y en el College de Montaigne (Allí estudiaron [[Erasmo]] e [[Ignacio de Loyola]]). El padre de Calvino era abogado y en [[1523]] envía a su hijo, que por entonces tenía 14 años, a la [[Universidad de París]] a estudiar Humanidades y Derecho. A instancias de su padre, que pretendía que Juan Calvino siguiera el camino de las leyes, se enroló en las universidades de Orleáns y Bourgues. En [[1532]], se doctora en Derecho en [[Orléans]]. Durante su paso por los claustros universitarios tomó contacto con las ideas humanistas y reformadas. En abril de 1532, cuando contaba 22 años de edad, publicó un comentario sobre el ''De Clementia'' de [[Séneca]], trabajo que puso en evidencia sus dotes como pensador.

His Protestant friends included Nicholas Cop, Rector at the University of Paris. In 1533 Cop gave an address “replete with Protestant ideas,” and “Calvin was probably involved as the writer of that address.”<ref name=Hill /> Cop soon found it necessary to flee Paris, as did Calvin himself a few days after. In [[Angouleme]] he sheltered with a friend, Louis du Tillet. Calvin settled for a time in [[Basel]],
After a brief and covert return to France in 1536, Calvin was forced to choose an alternate return route in the face of imperial and French forces, thus he passed by Geneva. [[Guillaume Farel]] pleaded with Calvin to stay in Geneva and help the city. Despite a desire to continue his journey, he settled in [[Geneva]]. After being expelled from the city, he served as a pastor in [[Strasbourg]] from 1538 until 1541, before returning to Geneva, where he lived until his death in 1564.
