About the Zipcar Program at Notre Dame de Namur University
Zipcar, the world's largest 24/7 car-sharing service, provides Notre Dame de Namur students, faculty and staff with a convenient and eco-friendly way to get around – whether it’s running errands, driving around campus or taking a road trip.
The Zipcar fleet at NDNU includes a Ford Focus Fairborn and a Mazda 3 Marva. The cars are in the lot just outside St. Mary’s Hall and adjacent to the Main Lot in clearly-marked stalls. Fuel is included. There's a one-hour minimum and four day maximum for reservations.
Reserving a Car
To reserve a car, you must be age 18 or older, meet eligibility requirements and join Zipcar using a debit or credit card to pay the annual membership fee. Members age 18 to 20 can only reserve Zipcars assigned to the NDNU campus; members 21 and older have access to Zipcar’s network of more than 5,500 vehicles throughout North America and the United Kingdom.
All memberships, reservations and payments are administered and managed by Zipcar.
Students
Why bring a car to campus when you have access to Zipcar? Once membership is confirmed, a Zipcar card is mailed to the credit or debit card billing address, so please allow time for the card to reach you if this is your permanent address. At NDNU, members ages 18 to 20 can only reserve and use the two cars located on NDNU’s campus. Users 21+ may reserve and drive anywhere there is a Zipcar. Drivers under 21 are encouraged to review this important insurance information.

Staff/Faculty
If you use Zipcar for personal reasons, join with a personal credit or debit card. A Notre Dame de Namur credit card cannot be used to purchase Zipcar services. Once membership is confirmed, you’ll receive a Zipcar card in the mail.
