Membership Adjustments

Important Changes to the 2021-22 Membership Year & Equity Seating for Football


The challenges presented by the pandemic and its aftermath are numerous, but the top priority of Rams Club members remains the same – to provide the best student-athlete experience in the country to our 800 Tar Heel student-athletes.

To best pursue that priority and to continue to meet your membership needs, The Rams Club has made membership adjustments that will affect your Rams Club membership:

The 2021-22 Membership Year begins July 1, 2021 and concludes on June 30, 2022

The membership year has traditionally run from January 1 to December 31, but in response to the pandemic, The Rams Club extended the 2020 membership year to the following June 30. Future membership years will shift permanently to a July 1 to June 30 schedule as a result. This shift aligns with the academic and competition years for our student-athletes and will put all ticket rights for Carolina sports in the same membership year. For members who consistently make their gift at the same time each year, you should not need to change your giving habits.

The Football Equity Seating Process Moves to 2022

The football equity seating process (seat selection) scheduled for the spring of 2021 has been delayed one year to the spring of 2022. By postponing the selection process for one year, Carolina can make good on that promise of a third year in your current seat location in 2021. The priority point deadline and season ticket order deadline for this process will be shared by the fall of 2021. The selection process in 2022 will take place in the spring of 2022.

The challenges Carolina Athletics has overcome in the last year and a half are significant. It is because of a great team of supporters who believe in our student-athletes, our coaches and our University that Carolina continues to excel. Thanks for being part of the team!
