Exclusive Football Ticket Discounts for University of Arkansas Alumni
The Razorback Foundation, in collaboration with the University of Arkansas, is dedicated to offering unique opportunities to its alumni. To that end, the Young Alumni Program has been created as an exclusive membership level within the Razorback Foundation specifically for recent University of Arkansas graduates. This program allows eligible graduates to join the Razorback Foundation and purchase football and men's basketball season tickets at a reduced rate, encouraging continued engagement with Razorback Athletics.
Eligibility and Program Duration
Individuals who have been awarded a degree from the University of Arkansas can take advantage of the Young Alumni Program for five consecutive years following their graduation year. This provides a significant window of opportunity for recent graduates to enjoy discounted tickets and other benefits.
To be eligible for the Young Alumni Program, applicants must have graduated from the University of Arkansas with one of the following degree types: Bachelor's Degree, Master's Degree, Doctoral Degree, or Professional Degree. Furthermore, applicants cannot be currently enrolled at the University of Arkansas and cannot be eligible for student tickets. A verification process ensures that all applicants have indeed been awarded a degree from the University of Arkansas and are not currently enrolled as students.
How to Join and Program Cost
Membership in the Young Alumni Program is accessible year-round and costs just $35 annually, showcasing a 30% discount from the introductory Razorback membership level, which is normally $50 annually. This affordable membership opens the door to a range of benefits and opportunities.
All Young Alumni members are permitted to purchase up to two mobile passes at $180 each, based on availability for each home football and/or each home men's basketball game. This ensures that members have access to discounted tickets for the sports they love. Even if you do not want or need season tickets, you may still join the Young Alumni Program, as a Membership only option is available and includes all applicable benefits.

Young Alumni Program Benefits
The Young Alumni Program offers a multitude of benefits, including:
- Discount on football season tickets and men's basketball season tickets
- Priority Points
- Invitation to Special Events
- 15% Discount at Hog Heaven (with membership card)
- Plus more!
Priority Points: What They Are and Why They Matter
The Razorback Priority Points Program is designed to recognize members' commitment to Razorback Athletics, honoring and rewarding their generous financial support and passion over the years. The program encourages consistency and transparency in the allocation of member benefits (new/additional season tickets, seat improvements, parking and tickets for away, neutral site and postseason game ticket requests, etc.) by assigning point values to several categories of giving to the Razorback Foundation.
The points from each giving category are combined to create a point total, which is then used to rank each member within their Annual Fund membership class. Put simply, the higher a member's priority point total or rank within their member class, the better access they will have to preferred seating, parking and other benefits offered by the Razorback Foundation.
Young Alumni will receive 5 Priority Points every year for consecutive years giving provided that it falls within their years of eligibility in the program. In addition to the points for consecutive years giving, Young Alumni will also receive one point every year for their $35 membership. Therefore, Young Alumni may receive up to 30 Priority Points contingent upon their years of eligibility in the program.

Transitioning to Full Razorback Foundation Membership
Members of the Young Alumni Program can transition into a regular Razorback Foundation membership level at any point within, or at the end of their Young Alumni Program eligibility window. When transitioning from the Young Alumni program into full Razorback Foundation membership, Young Alumni may keep their points provided that they transition during their time in the Young Alumni program, OR immediately after their eligibility in the program. To receive the available Priority Points, members must transition directly from the Young Alumni Program into a Razorback Foundation membership level.
Special Circumstances and Opportunities
For existing Razorback Foundation members with football season tickets who qualify for the Young Alumni program, maintaining their current membership and renewing their season tickets will result in a one-time 20 priority point bonus applied to their existing account. This will be added onto your Annual Fund giving category; however it does not represent an annual gift. As an existing Razorback Foundation member, you may still apply for the Young Alumni program, however if you apply, you will not receive the 20 bonus point credit.
Staying Informed and Engaged
To ensure you don't miss out on any opportunities, make sure your contact information is up to date by signing into your Athletic Ticket Office Account.
