ITHACA, N.Y. — Men's Hockey season tickets are on sale now at The Cornell Athletic Ticket Office has unveiled the process for students to obtain season tickets – and the earlier the tickets are purchased, the earlier the seat location can be selected at the Seat Selection event on Friday, Sept 27.
 
The prioritized selection process that has employed in recent years will continue, rewarding loyal season ticket holders. Graduate students and undergraduates who have purchased tickets in the past will be given priority to purchase reserved seat tickets in a prioritized selection process. Purchasing tickets early, within the group in which one is eligible, will entitle a student to an earlier pick of seats during seat selection. The sale and determination of seat selection order will be conducted online at CornellBigRedTickets.com.
 
First-time buyers (freshmen and students who have not purchased season tickets in the past) may purchase general admission tickets in Student Section E now at CornellBigRedTickets.com, or wait to see if reserved seats are available on Sept. 26. New students and students who have not purchased tickets in the past will have the opportunity to purchase any remaining tickets following the seat selection for returning ticket holders.
 
Students may purchase either one or two season tickets apiece. Only students purchasing their own tickets will be considered as a ticketholder during future sales. If you want to be included in the one-, two-, or three-year ticket holder groups in the future, you must purchase tickets in your name.
