Does the institution participate in a car sharing program, such as ZipCar or HourCar?:
A brief description of the program:
ODU participates in Zipcar, which allows members to use a car-sharing program. Those interested must apply online. Once a person is approved, a member Zipcard is provided. Members reserve a car via phone or online at a low-rate for a specific period of time. There is 24/7 access to Zipcars parked on campus. Members simply reserve online, let themselves in with their Zipcard and drive. The low hourly and daily rates always include gas and insurance. The cars must be returned to the same reserved parking spot at the end of the reservation.
Old Dominion University students, faculty, and staff can join Zipcar for only $35/year. Community members not affiliated with ODU may also join. Members also get $35 in free driving to use during the first month.
ODU members need to be 18 or older to join. Members age 18-20 can use a dedicated group of Zipcars that live on campus. Members age 21 or older also have access to thousands of Zipcars all around the world.
