How does the Priority Points System work?<br />
The Priority Points System quantifies every I-Club member’s and<br />
season ticket holder’s relationship with UI Athletics by considering<br />
a number of different criteria, including giving to athletics, years of<br />
season ticket purchase, and alumni/letterwinner status.<br />
Is my I-Club gift tax deductible?<br />
80 percent of your I-Club gift is tax deductible because you are<br />
receiving a benefit (valued at 20 percent) from this gift. For more<br />
information, seek the advice of your accountant or tax advisor, or<br />
view IRS section 170(1).<br />
Can I use a company match for my athletics gift?<br />
Often times, yes. Please check with your company’s human resources<br />
department for more information and to review any specific<br />
restrictions within your company’s matching gift program. Matching<br />
gift forms are available through the company providing the matching<br />
gift. Please contact the Hawkeyes Athletics Development Office with<br />
additional questions regarding matching gifts.<br />
What are Priority Points and how are they used?<br />
Our priority points system is a fair and consistent method of<br />
assigning seat locations for football and men’s basketball season<br />
tickets, allowing for football away-game ticket purchase, bowl-ticket<br />
purchase, and other related opportunities.<br />
Can I receive I-Club “credit” for a gift I made to other areas<br />
of the university?<br />
No, only gifts made to the I-Club (or sport-specific development funds)<br />
are eligible for I-Club giving credit. However, gifts made to athletics<br />
campaigns count toward priority.<br />
