Priority Points The UMAA Foundation utilizes a priority point system to acknowledge those who support Ole Miss Athletics. Priority points are accumulated through the following:• One point for every $100 donated to the UMAA Foundation.

• One point for every season ticket (up to 10 per year) since 1996 for football, men’s and women’s basketball, and baseball.

Allocation Process The allocation process is arranged by donor club level first and then by priority points within each donor level. Allocations for each club level begin with the donor who has the most priority points, and continue until all donors within that level have been allocated seats. For information on the football donor club levels, please refer to the Football Annual Giving Levels/Benefits Chart.

group SeatingIf you are requesting to sit with a specific group of people with multiple donor accounts, remember that the entire group will be allocated at the lowest individual level of giving within the group.

how to:Renew Season Tickets• Retain your current season ticket location by making the required donation and season

ticket payment by the deadline, April 30, 2011.

• Season Ticket Applications are mailed separately from the Athletic Ticket Office.

Purchase New or Additional Season Tickets• If you are trying to obtain new or additional season tickets, we strongly recommend that

you contribute more than the minimum donation amount for the section you desire.

• Donors who are renewing the same seating will be auto allocated first, as long as the required donation and tickets have been ordered prior to the deadline. It is not possible to bump a renewing donor out of his or her seats.

• There is no way to know exactly what donation amount is needed to obtain a specific location. All new seating is dependent upon what seats are not renewed and where the donor’s priority ranks them in the allocation list.

• Ticket orders and annual donations for new season ticket holders need to be made by the April 30 deadline to receive priority.

Relocate Season TicketsAs a valued UMAA Foundation donor, you can make specific requests to have your season tickets relocated in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. • All seating requests must be made in writing to the UMAA Foundation

or the Athletics Ticket Office.

• Make the request on your donation or ticket renewal form, or in the comments box if you renew online. Please be specific in your seating request.

• An increase in your contribution alone DOES NOT signify a request to move.

• There are no guarantees for any seating requests. All requests are filled based on availability and priority.

Supporting the Success of Ole Miss Athletics

The mission of the UMAA Foundation is to aid the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics at The University of Mississippi. Such assistance takes the form of providing scholarships for student-athletes, funding for necessary facility improvements, supplements to coaches’ salaries and supporting the department in many other ways necessary to have an outstanding athletics program.

The UMAA Foundation consists of the priority seating funds for football, men’s basketball and baseball, the 5-Star Fund, and the Vaught Society.

The ability to attract the nation’s top student-athletes is paramount to our success in the Southeastern Conference.

Revenue generated from the 5-Star Fund will go towards attracting premier student-athletes who have the potential to become leaders of tomorrow.

Now is the time to show your pride and make a difference. Make a supplemental gift to the 5-Star Fund on your football form, or join online at www.umaafoundation.com.
