Deposits Now Being Accepted for 2010-11 Men's Basketball Season Tickets

March 14, 2010

EVANSTON, Ill. - Wildcat fans can now put a down-payment to secure season tickets to next year's men's basketball season in Welsh-Ryan Arena.

Fans can make a non-refundable deposit of $100 per seat to be applied toward the final cost of a full season ticket package, which will range from $125 to $350 dependent upon the number of home games and type of season ticket. Fans can make the deposits through one of the following options:

• Online at NUsports.com with a credit card
• Through the mail with a paper order form and check or credit card
• By fax with a paper order form and credit card

2009-10 season ticket holders do not need to submit a deposit to retain their seats, but they MUST renew by the season ticket deadline in the fall to guarantee the same seats.

Specific season ticket packages will go on sale in the fall, and season ticket locations will be allocated in late October. New season ticket holders can anticipate seat locations to be available in the following sections:

• VERY limited number of purple preferred in Sections 202 and 206
• Regular reserved availability in Sections 211-213

The order for seat allocation in October will be as follows:
1) Renewing season ticket holders who renew by the fall deadline
2) Fans who have Basketball Priority Points* and have made their deposit for upcoming season tickets will be seated in Basketball Priority Point order.
3) Then fans without Basketball Priority Points who have made their deposit for upcoming season tickets will be seated based on the date of their deposit.
4) Lastly, fans who purchase season tickets in the fall without a deposit.

Payment must be received in full in the fall before seats will be allocated. Deposits can only be applied to a FULL season ticket package. The deposit CANNOT be applied toward 5-pack plans, parking passes or single game tickets.

There is no limit to the number of $100 deposits a fan can make, and all fans that make a deposit are guaranteed a season ticket for that deposit.
