Undergraduate Student Athletic Ticket Policies

Full-Time Undergraduate Students who have paid their tuition have an opportunity to attend all home Northwestern regular-season athletic contests with presentation of their valid Northwestern WildCARD ID. Students must present a valid WildCARD for admittance --SORRY NO EXCEPTIONS. All seating is general admission*; there are a limited number of student seats. If general public seating for football and men's basketball is sold out and student tickets remain, tickets will be released for public sale beginning 15 minutes before kickoff for football and 15 minutes before tip-off for men's basketball. Students will continue to be admitted on an availability basis until seating is exhausted.

*NU Athletics reserves the right to enforce reserved seating if crowd control or safety issues dictate the necessity. The University reserves the right to relocate ticket holder(s) to an alternate seat location(s) at its discretion based upon conduct, apparel or other reasons.
