Drivers who intend to use fleet vehicles and/or rental vehicles for College business must possess a valid U.S. driver’s license.  All drivers must be pre-qualified and appear on the list of Authorized College Drivers before being allowed to drive fleet vehicles or rental vehicles (including Enterprise Car Share) for business travel.

Faculty and Staff can pre-qualify as an Authorized Driver:

  1. Complete a Motor Vehicle Report Release Waiver and submit the waiver to the Business Office
  2. Register and complete the online Drivers Training Course
  3. Receive verification from the Business Office that your name is included on the list of Authorized College Drivers 
  4. Review the fleet vehicle procedures and fleet vehicle policy
  5. Honor Carleton’s shared fleet vehicle courtesies

Students can pre-qualify as an Authorized Student Driver:

  1. Apply for a certified copy of your driving record — obtained from your home State’s Department of Motor Vehicles — and submit it to Campus Services. Our insurance company requests a 3-year driving history (minimum of 2 years).
  2. Register and complete the online Drivers Safety Fundamentals
  3. Read the Fleet Vehicle Policies/Procedures Manual
  4. Complete a Student Driver Application.
  5. Honor Carleton’s shared fleet vehicle courtesies
