After careful review, we have decided to align ourselves more closely with the majority of athletic departments around the country. This change will allow us to be more efficient with our membership renewal process, and clearly define what is a gift, and what is a ticket purchase. Moving forward, premium seat payments will be called Per Seat License or PSL for short. By separating the price of a premium ticket into both a ticket cost, and a PSL, it will allow us to track and award priority points directly correlated to your PSL. You will be awarded 1 point per every $100 of PSL payments. Perhaps more importantly you will be able to transact all your ticket related business online and in one location. As renewals roll out, you will be able to renew your season tickets along with your PSL at one-time through the ticket office via your (MyHuskies) account.
Members of the Huskie Athletic Fund receive first priority for football and basketball premium seating. All ticket requests, including football road and postseason games, are determined by the benefit allocation process. The benefit allocation process is first determined by Annual Giving Level and then Priority Points within each Annual Giving Level.
Please request new or upgraded seats and parking on your donor renewal form or by calling (815) 753-1923. After the deadline we will review all seat and parking requests and allocate based on current donor level first and then by priority points within each level.
To ensure minimum confusion between donations (including Premium Seat Payments) and ticket purchases, we ask that two separate checks be made for each payment in order to create a more simplified process.
