University Athletics Tickets

Tickets are required for admission to men's and women's athletic events, and the availability of tickets for some events is limited. Full-time appointed employees and employees who meet the criteria for retirement privileges may purchase up to two non-premium season books of tickets to men's football, basketball, and baseball home games at half-price; half-time employees may purchase one season book to each of these events at half-price. All employees are occasionally offered discounted or free tickets to individual women's softball, basketball, soccer, and volleyball games and gymnastic meets. In certain instances, the difference between the discounted price of tickets and the full price may be taxable.
