Effective
August 1, 2008 the S.C. will no longer rent vehicles due to reliability concerns. The S.C. takes the safety and security of all of it’s guests very seriously and if we cannot provide everyone with that then we cannot offer the rental service any longer. We recommend people contact Enterprise Rent-a-Car at (404) 659-6050. They will rent vehicles of all sizes to Students, Staff & Faculty of Georgia tech as long as the primary driver is over 21 and has a major credit card
