How will I know my order has been received?
A credit card charge by the Terrapin Ticket Office confirms receipt of your order, but does not guarantee that all or part of your order will be filled. When the final number of tickets that you will be assigned is determined, your credit card charge will be adjusted to reflect the appropriate amount.
How can I join the Terrapin Club?
If you are not currently a member of the Terrapin Club, you can join by Nov. 28, 2008 for the 2008 membership year to have your tickets assigned as a Terrapin Club member. Visit www.terrapinclub.com or call (301) 314-7020.
Can I sit with a group?
While we cannot guarantee that we will be able to honor group-seating requests, every effort will be made to do so. Fans wishing to sit together must submit their orders at the same time and each group member must indicate with whom they wish to be seated on their ticket application. Seats will be assigned in order of the person with the fewest Terpoint total in the group. In the event that a member of the group is not a Terrapin Club member, ALL seats will be assigned within the non-donor area.
Can I sit in the seats I have for the regular season?
Every effort will be made to assign the same seats for those who have regular season tickets; however, because of NCAA® ticket obligations (i.e., visiting teams, bands, etc.) this cannot be guaranteed.
If I have courtside seats for the regular season, will they be available for the tournament?
Courtside seats will not be in place for this event due to NCAA® tournament restrictions.
If the Terps are selected to the tournament, will they play at Comcast Center?
Yes, if the Terps earn a second consecutive NCAA® Division I Women's Basketball Championship berth, they will be assigned to the College Park First/Second Rounds at Comcast Center.
No. 1 Maryland Terrapins
No. 8 Villanova Wildcats
No. 9 Utah Utes
No. 16 Dartmouth Big Green
