University of Connecticut Athletics
PRIORITY POINTS PROGRAM
The UConn Athletics Priority Point system will be utilized to acknowledge both donor loyalty and generosity. Each donor's priority point total will determine his/her priority ranking and play a determining factor in how various benefits are allocated.
A minimum annual gift of $100 to any area of the Husky Athletic Fund is required to activate priority points. You can actively increase your points throughout the giving year.
PRIORITY POINTS WILL BE USED WHEN DISTRIBUTING AND ALLOCATING:
- Season tickets
- Conference and NCAA tournament tickets
- Bowl game tickets
- Parking
- Special events and other benefits
- Away game tickets
ACCRUING POINTS

Consecutive Years of Giving - 10 points per year
Ten (10) points will be awarded for each year of consecutive giving to the Husky Athletic Fund. The first points earned for consecutive years giving would be in a donor's second year contributing. Donors will not have technically given in consecutive years until they have occurred in back-to back years. A minimum gift of $100 each year is necessary to qualify.
Season Ticket Purchases - 2 points per season ticket
Two (2) points will be awarded for every season ticket purchased for football, men's basketball (XL Center and/or Gampel Pavilion), women's basketball (XL Center and/or Gampel Pavilion), and/or men's ice hockey.
Points are earned only if you have purchased tickets in your name through the UConn Athletics Ticket Office.

Fifty (50) points will be awarded to UConn graduates with a maximum of fifty (50) points per individual and a maximum of one hundred (100) points per account.
Former UConn Student Athlete - 100 points

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO NOTE
Please Note:
If a commitment is not fulfilled, the donor will lose points associated with the commitment.
Priority points for matching gifts will be awarded once the matching gift is received.
Priority points will not be awarded for special events donations such as registration fees, auction items, event ticket purchases, sponsorships, etc.
Points and/or season tickets may not be transferred from one person to another or from one account to another. Also, the University does not transfer priority points or tickets by virtue of wills. In the event of the death of an account holder or season ticket holder, the surviving spouse (the definition of spouse is consistent with applicable federal law) retains the priority points, providing the surviving spouse is on the account at the time of death. No other immediate family members, friends or other entities will qualify for a transfer of priority points or tickets.
Priority Point System policies and procedures are subject to change.
