THE PASSPORT - INCOMING STUDENTS ONLY
Purdue’s incoming class of students will have the opportunity to purchase a mini version called “The Passport." The Passport will be limited to 750 students for the year and will cost $109. Students can only purchase one Passport.
WITH THE PASSPORT, YOU WILL RECEIVE:
1 ticket to 2 home football games during the 2025 season
You will select what games you want during the purchase process
1 ticket to any Volleyball game played in Mackey Arena
There is no guarantee a game will be played in Mackey, as Holloway Gymnasium is the typical location for Purdue Volleyball. Should a game be played in Mackey, you will automatically receive a ticket sent to via email.
Access to 1 ticket to every home Women’s Basketball game during the 2025-26 season
Must claim through your student ticket account.
The opportunity to get 1 ticket to any Men’s Basketball home game during the Thanksgiving or Winter Break.
Tickets are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Information on how to claim these tickets is listed below on this page.
The Passport also provides an inside track to getting a Golden Ticket opportunity for the 2026-27 season.
For more Golden Ticket information, click here.
HOW TO GET THE PASSPORT
The opportunity to purchase The Passport will be determined through a lottery since we cannot accommodate every incoming student. All lottery and purchase information will be sent to the student’s Purdue email address.
The Passport purchase window is now closed for 2025-26.
All sales will be online through the student’s ticket account on Purduesports.com. Detailed instructions will be provided to eligible purchasers.
Passports will not be available for purchase once this window expires.
ADDITIONAL TICKET INFORMATION
If a student does not win the opportunity to purchase The Passport or fails to purchase during the window, there will be opportunities to get individual game tickets to football and women’s basketball games during the year. Men’s basketball and volleyball can be much harder to get tickets to but there have been times when we’ve made a small number of tickets available to students for select games.
