Directions & FASET Parking


FROM AIRPORT TO CAMPUS VIA MARTA

Atlanta’s public transportation system, MARTA, has a rail station inside of the airport. This service offers the quickest and most inexpensive way to get to campus ($1.75). Trains leave approximately every ten minutes.

MARTA’s rail system operates from 5:00 A.M. to 1:00 A.M. Monday through Friday, and from
5:30 A.M. to 12:30 A.M. weekends and holidays.

All trains leaving the airport travel north toward Georgia Tech. Disembark at the Midtown Station and follow signs to the Peachtree exit. Once outside, wait by the Tech Trolley sign for the bright yellow clearly labeled trolley that will take you to campus. Trolley schedules are posted here. Please note that they do not run on Sunday mornings.

FROM AIRPORT TO CAMPUS VIA TAXI

If you are carrying a lot of luggage, you may opt to take a taxi. Taxis are located directly outside the baggage claim area. The fare to Georgia Tech is roughly $30. The ride will take twenty to forty minutes depending on traffic. You will be traveling into the downtown area, so it is best to avoid times between 6:00 A.M. -9:00 A.M.

 

FASET PARKING

Parking on the Georgia Tech campus will be available only in designated areas during the FASET Orientation program (see below)*. Once you park your vehicle, you should not need to move it again during the duration of the FASET program. The campus is easily covered by foot and we have a bus and trolley system.

*Transfer FASET sessions will park in the Student Center Parking Deck.* See the FASET Parking map for details. Students and guests will check-in on the 3rd floor of the Student Center.
