Seating Locations

•  Students' prior season seating location
•  Attendance at games
•  Average arrival time prior to tip-off
•  Participation in the Izzone Campout (September 29&30)

Prior Season Location
Returning Lower Level Students - Students seated in the lower level last season with 2 or less unexcused absences from games may qualify for lower level seats again this year. Students must submit requests with payment by September 21, 2007 online at www.msuspartans.com and participate in the Izzone Campout in order to remain eligible for lower level seats. Students with 3 or more unexcused absences from games will be assigned to upper level.

Returning Upper Level Students - Students with upper level seating last season may qualify for lower level seating. Students that qualify must submit requests with payment by September 21, 2007 and participate in the Izzone Campout in order to become eligible for lower level seating. Priority for assignment to available lower level seating is based upon the prior season's attendance (games attended) and arrival time (prior to tip-off).

New Students - Students requesting Student Basketball Admissions for the first time may qualify for lower level seats. In order to qualify students must participate in the Izzone Campout as an extra. Once all requests have been received the ticket office will evaluate the quantity of requests and inventory of seats allocated to students to determine if they need to implement a lottery, issue refunds, or offer spilt season plans.

Locations Posted
Following the student request order deadline of September 21, 2007, a list of students that qualify for lower level seating will be posted on-line (www.izzone.com) and at the Spartan Athletic Ticket Office in Jenison Field House.

Izzone Campout
Lower Level - All students that qualify for lower level seats must participate in the Izzone Campout in order to receive access to lower level seating. Students unable to attend all or part of the campout due to University-related activities may request a waiver form from the SAF office (333 Union Building) prior to the campout. Students that qualify for lower level seating and do not participate in the Izzone Campout or receive a waiver will be assigned to a seat in the upper level.

Upper Level - Students who submit request with payment and do not qualify for lower level seating are not required to participate in the Izzone Campout. However, those students may choose to participate in the Izzone Campout as an extra and will become eligible for lower level seating should space become available based on no-shows at the campout. Students planning to participate in the Izzone Campout as an extra must inform the SAF office prior to the Izzone Campout date.
