AUSTIN, Texas – Starting with the 2014 season, UT Athletics and the Longhorn Foundation offer recent graduates from The University of Texas at Austin an exclusive membership opportunity to request football season tickets at a special rate as a part of the Longhorn Young Alumni Program.

All UT Austin graduates are eligible to participate in the program for four years after completion of their most recent degree, including bachelor's master's or doctoral.

"The Longhorn Young Alumni Program allows UT Athletics to connect with recent graduates in a new capacity and introduce them to the mission of the Longhorn Foundation," said Men's Athletics Director Steve Patterson. "This model will help create a sense of community among recent graduates by providing access to pregame hospitality areas and seating in the same section. I'm excited to launch the program this year. I know it has great potential and look forward to growing it in the years to come."

Alumni interested in the program must submit an online registration form by June 16, 2014, to confirm eligibility and to be entered into the drawing. Those chosen through the drawing will be contacted by the Longhorn Foundation on or before June 30 and will have an opportunity to purchase up to two tickets.

The yearly cost of the program is a combination of an 80 percent tax deductible annual donation to the Longhorn Foundation and a discounted season ticket payment. In the first year of the program, the required annual per seat donation is $50 with a discounted season ticket price of $200 per ticket for all Texas Football home games (plus a handling fee of $20). With each consecutive year in the program, there is a $50 increase in annual per seat donation. The season ticket price remains constant throughout the four year period at $200 per ticket (plus handling fee).

All Longhorn Young Alumni Program tickets are located in the bleacher seats of sections 128-129 starting at row 11 in Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.

Benefits include:

Pregame hospitality access to Texas Football home games in the Longhorn Corral and Champions Club

Parking access in state garages south of Martin Luther King Blvd. on Texas Football gamedays

Longhorn Foundation mailings and quarterly e-newsletter

Invitations to special UT Athletics events

80 percent tax deduction on annual donation (minus any benefits received)

Special Longhorn Young Alumni Program ticket opportunities for men's and women's basketball, baseball and softball
