So, if all goes as planned, I’ll hopefully be attending Emory next year as a freshman! As someone who’s from the Atlanta area, I know that Marta isn’t nearly as accessible as a lot of other public transportation systems in major cities. I was just wondering if there was any off campus parking for freshman that was relatively close to Emory and not too terribly expensive. If not, any other tips for getting around without a car? Thanks !!!
I’m sure you know that Freshman aren’t allowed parking.
Your best bet is to ask an upperclassman to buy you a pass.
If not, the apartment complexes near Emory’s Clairmont campus is where I used to park my car Mon-Fri. Harwood Apartments is another place you can try.
Saturday and Sunday, the parking decks on campus are open.
Overall, I would recommend that you Uber it. Having an impossible time getting around without a cab during your first year is part of the Emory experience.
