Attending LSU football games is an integral part of the college experience for many students. As a student at LSU, you have access to discounted tickets for home football games at Tiger Stadium. Here is a guide on how to purchase student tickets to LSU games.
Eligibility for Student Tickets
All full-time LSU students are eligible to purchase student tickets. You must be enrolled in at least 12 credit hours per semester. Part-time and graduate students are not eligible for student tickets.
Your LSU ID card will give you access to student tickets. You must present your ID when entering the stadium on game day. Students are limited to one ticket per ID card.
When Do Student Tickets Go On Sale?
The LSU Athletic Ticket Office will announce dates for student ticket sales a few weeks before each home game. Tickets are available on a first come, first served basis.
For big games like Alabama, student ticket distribution may be determined by a lottery system. Students are assigned a randomized date and time to purchase tickets online.
How Much Do Student Tickets Cost?
Student tickets are heavily discounted compared to regular ticket prices. Here are the student ticket rates for the 2023 LSU football season:
| Opponent | Student Ticket Price |
|---|---|
| Florida State | $30 |
| Mississippi State | $15 |
| Ole Miss | $15 |
| Alabama | $55 |
Student tickets for conference games (SEC opponents) are only $15. Rivalry games and special non-conference games cost more for students. But even the most expensive student tickets are priced below $60.
Where Do I Buy Student Tickets?
LSU student tickets must be purchased online through your student account on the LSU website:
- Log in to your MyLSU account
- Click on the Student Life tab
- Select ‘Student Tickets’
- Choose LSU Football and click the ‘Buy Tickets’ link
- Select the game you want to attend
- Confirm your order
Follow the prompts to complete your ticket purchase. You can use a credit card or debit card to pay online.
Can I Buy Student Guest Tickets?
LSU students are allowed to purchase one guest ticket in addition to their own. The guest must enter the stadium with the student ticket holder.
Guest tickets are available at the student rate and can be purchased during the normal student ticket sales period. Ask for a guest ticket when completing your student ticket order online.
Where Do Students Sit at Tiger Stadium?
Student seating is located in the south end zone at Tiger Stadium. Sections 301-329 are reserved for LSU students and the deaf and disabled student section.
Student seating is general admission within the student section. Seats are first come, first served on game day. Arrive early to get a seat lower down in the student section.
Can I Resell My Student Ticket?
LSU student tickets cannot legally be resold. Your LSU ID is required to use the ticket on game day. Scalping or reselling student tickets could result in penalties from the university.
What If I Can’t Attend a Game Anymore?
If your plans change and you can no longer attend a game, you have two options:
- Return the student ticket to the LSU Athletic Ticket Office at least 72 hours before kickoff. You’ll receive a refund to your credit card, minus any applicable fees.
- Transfer your ticket to another LSU student. The new student must use your LSU ID to gain stadium entry. Log into your student account to complete the transfer.
Make sure your tickets don’t go to waste if you cannot attend a game! Either get a refund or transfer them to allow another student to experience the game.
Can I Purchase Away Game Student Tickets?
For select LSU away games, a limited number of student tickets may be available for purchase. Availability varies by each away game.
Check the LSU Athletic Ticket Office website leading up to the game for away game student ticket sale announcements. The process is similar to purchasing home game tickets through your student account.
