Some implications of the proposal that flavor nondiagonal couplings of neutrinos to gravity might resolve the solar neutrino problem are considered in the context of three neutrino flavors. The two--flavor model is discussed as a limiting case of the full three-generation mechanism, and the behavior of the $\nue$ survival probability for various values of the three--flavor parameters is studied. Overlapping allowed SNU regions are obtained for the neutrinos which most likely contribute to the observed solar neutrino deficiency, and the effects of the addition of a third flavor are discussed. The extension to a three--generation framework is found to yield a greater allowed region of parameter space, suggesting that gravitationally--induced neutrino oscillations remain a viable explanation of the Solar Neutrino Problem.
