Student Ticket Lottery FAQ

Who can use the lottery?
Any full-time Virginia Tech student that has paid the athletic fee. Part-time students are eligible if they pay the optional athletic fee during the semester in which the lottery is being conducted and/or the game is played.


I’ve missed the lottery cut-off date, can I still sign up?
No. Once the lottery cut-off has passed, no additional students will be allowed into the lottery. However, if there are still tickets remaining after the lottery, all eligible students will be notified when and how to pick-up.


I’ve won the lottery, do I still need to print out the ticket and bring it to the game?
You can download your ticket to your Apple or Google Wallet. All tickets are now tap-and-go using NFC technology. No barcodes will be scanned at the student gates.


How do I sit with my friends?
Due to general admission seating, students who wish to sit together must enter the game together. There is no need to "group" order season tickets. That functionality is not needed with general admission seating.


I signed up for a game and now I can’t go, what should I do?

Once you've been assigned a ticket, it can not be returned. If you can not attend a game after you've already won the lottery, feel free to transfer your ticket to another student who would like to go. Any student with a valid Hokie Passport may use a student ticket.


How will I know when my ticket is ready?
You will get an email from the system once tickets for a game are posted and ready to be printed. If you miss the email, simply login to the lottery page to check your status, or print your ticket.
