2013-14 U-M Student Men's Basketball Ticket Policies
ELIGIBILITY: To be eligible to order and maintain a Michigan basketball season ticket, you must intend to register for classes for the entire Fall 2013 term and Winter 2014 term.
PROOF OF ELIGIBILITY: The Ticket Office will check your registration status with the Registrar's Office. If you are not properly registered prior to the beginning of the basketball season, your season ticket will be held until you provide us with proof of such registration. If you are not properly registered after the season begins, the Ticket Office will deactivate the bar code on your season tickets for the remaining games and no refund will be issued.
ORDERING: Current/returning students may order a season basketball ticket beginning Tuesday, April 23 at 8:30 a.m. through Friday, May 3, at 5 p.m. New incoming students and new graduate students will be able to order in June. Student season basketball tickets are $200.
Please note, due to potential demand and the very limited available seating in Crisler Center, there may be a limit on student tickets.
SEATING: Seating information will be emailed to student season ticket holders in September.
DEADLINE: The current/returning student deadline has passed (it was Friday, May 3, at 5 p.m.) There is a waitlist for returning students who missed the deadline. To be added to the waitlist, please send an email to mtickets@umich.edu with your name, student ID number, daytime phone number, and the subject: Student Waitlist. If we have seats available after the new students order, or if there are any cancellations, we will contact students on the waitlist to take orders. However, waitlisted students are not guaranteed tickets.
The new incoming student deadline is Friday, June 28, at 5 p.m. Do not wait until the last hours of the sale to check your application and order your ticket. If tickets are still available, students will be able to order a basketball season ticket in September. However, to be assured of a ticket, you should order as soon as you notified that applications are available.
BREAK GAMES: Student season-ticket holders may buy single-game tickets in the bleachers for the student break games. Details will be announced once the schedule has been finalized.
DISABILITY: The Athletic Department encourages persons with disabilities to attend Michigan basketball games. If you need to purchase a wheelchair accessible season ticket or have questions about the physical access provided, please call the Ticket Office at (866) 296-6849 (MTIX) prior to ordering tickets or attending a game.
DELIVERY: Basketball season tickets will be loaded to your MCard student ID which will be scanned for entry to Crisler Center.
STUDENT ID: Your student ID must be presented to enter Crisler Center. No one shall use the ID of another student.
NON-STUDENT USE: A student ticket may be used by a non-student if it is validated. Once validated, anyone may use the ticket for admission. The price of a validation sticker is $10 for non-conference games and $20 for conference games. Any student may validate by presenting their student ID, paying the validation price and having an "unrestricted use" sticker(s) affixed to the transferred ticket(s). This can be accomplished at the U-M Athletic Ticket Office Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

SCALPING: Scalping (selling a ticket above face value) violates University policy and Michigan law. Attempting to sell or solicit the sale of a ticket (even at face value) on campus without a permit also violates University policy. Therefore, a violation of these University policies or this Michigan law may result in your ineligibility to purchase tickets in the future even if criminal charges are not filed against you. The Athletic Department reserves the right to declare you ineligible to order tickets if it receives sufficient evidence that a ticket assigned to you was sold or was offered for sale at greater than the face value of the ticket.
NSF CHECKS: Returned checks will be assessed a $30.00 fee. If you do not honor your returned check promptly, your ticket order will be canceled. You will be responsible for the $30 fee before you may purchase tickets to any Michigan sporting event.
REFUNDS: If you apply for a season ticket and later decide not to enroll for the Fall 2013 term, you may receive a full refund provided you send a written request to the Ticket Office prior to November 1, 2013. No phone requests will be accepted. Additionally, there will be no refunds for students whose season tickets have been voided because the student is not properly registered.
MISCELLANEOUS: Only tickets purchased directly from the Ticket Office are guaranteed to be valid. Individuals admitted with invalid tickets will be ejected. Everyone must have a ticket regardless of age. The Ticket Office assumes no responsibility for lost, stolen or destroyed tickets, or tickets mailed from locations other than the Ticket Office.
