Enterprise CarShare Partnering with Mississippi State University to Provide Affordable Transportation on Campus

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterprise CarShare is partnering with Mississippi State University (MSU) to provide students, faculty and staff with an on-campus, on-demand transportation solution. A service of Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Enterprise CarShare offers an affordable and convenient way to rent a vehicle by the hour, the day or overnight.

"Many MSU students and community members don't have access to a car to take them where they need to go," said Jeremiah Dumas, MSU's Director of Parking and Transit Services. "We're excited to have Enterprise CarShare on campus, allowing anyone who needs to easily rent a car for a few hours to do so."

MSU students, faculty and staff can now access three CarShare vehicles located on Lee Blvd., across from Colvard Student Union. Enterprise's user-friendly technology allows renters to reserve vehicles 24/7, and the low hourly and daily rates include gas, insurance and 275 miles per day. To celebrate the launch of this partnership, Enterprise is offering all new MSU members 50 percent off the annual membership fee and $25 in driving credits.

Program membership is open to students, faculty and staff ages 18 and up. To enroll, applicants must register online and provide a valid MSU email address. After receiving a membership card in the mail, members can rent a vehicle by following four easy steps. And, with the Enterprise CarShare app for iPhone and Android users, U.S. members can make or modify reservations, extend rentals and choose pickup locations, all from their mobile device.

"We offer a unique transportation option for students, faculty and staff ? when and where they need it," said Kyle Sabie, Corporate Rental Manager overseeing Enterprise CarShare. "We look forward to working with our partners at MSU and continuing to evolve the program to serve their needs."
