Looks like Priority Points have been updated

Thanks for the heads up.

Anyone remember last years parking PP chart?
 
Looks like the total is either correct or slightly off (low). It is not a full accounting so maybe it's not complete.

Anyone remember last years parking PP chart?
The 2014 Priority Point cutoffs for each lot are as follows:

Scarlet 96
Scarlet H/C 41
Green 71
Yellow 64
Blue 31
Purple 23
White H/C 22
Black 13
Tan 1+
Silver 1+
Light Blue 1+
 
Did we get 5 bonus points for renewing in full in December?
 
I think the 5 bonus points and bonus points for bowl game tickets are listed under bonus points. What does not show but seems to be included in total is number of tix purchased and consecutive years of having season tickets.
 
Also not listed is the new 2points for each year of giving. This just started so 2 is the max you can have. Not sure if these are included in current total.
 
Any chance RUTexan is gonna post his points total? I'm asking for a friend who is not in a cubicle next to mine, in case you're wondering.

Looks to be incomplete. No points listed for:
1. Consecutive years of giving
2. 5 points for MBB or WBB.
3. Early order commitment
4. Bowl tickets
 
From what I was told, the 5 points for renewing early should show up under bonus points. I was also confused for on the consecutive years of giving but this was the explanation I received:

"The R Fund is brand new for 2015. Once people "renew" a donation in 2016, they will earn 2 points for one consecutive year of giving to the R Fund."

Based on that, it looks like consecutive years of giving won't factor into anyone's priority points for this season.
 
Anyone else not seeing consecutive season ticket points listed? Did they get rid of that?
 
None of the ticket-purchase based points are posted yet.

Current Season Ticket Purchases: #________ x1 = __________
Consecutive Years of Purchase: #________ x1 = __________
Bonus points for bowl ticket purchase and/or early season ticket renewal/deposit.
 
Honestly if I ever have an issue like that I just go straight to the source and call/email my ticket rep. I'm sure they're pretty busy today but I seem to get the best answer that way

I have bonus points listed in my account but not consecutive years.

even though not listed appears they are in the total. (at least they are for mine)..otherwise the math wouldn't add up.

What I don't see is the points for Bowl Tix. The 5 B"bonus pts" are for the early payments. They really need to put the full details in there so one could account for everything without having to guess or back into the total.
 
That link contains the same info on parking vs. priority points...

Safely in yellow again...


not seeing it that way. While it has current donation levels...this link quotes the Priority Point Levels for 2014 Season. I don't believe they have determined them for 2015 yet.
 
Ignore the above.
here is the link to the 2015 points and donation info for parking

The info I provided was copied directly from that link. You would have known that if you took the time to read the information versus ignoring it. BTW, they have not announced the 2015 PP cutoffs.

You are correct.

I think you are right. But a full accounting would be useful. It's been there in the past.

They have not determined the cutoffs for 2015 yet. The cutoffs are determined after parking is assigned, not before. After they assign parking, then they look at the lowest priority point level for each lot, and that is the cutoff.
 
They need to add wrestling season tix into the consecutive years of tix formula like MBB & WBB.

I lobby for this once per year and I don't even have wrestling tickets. Frankly they should do it for all sports just break it down to the $100 = 1.0 points (which would be the maximum IMO). We have gymnastics season tickets which are $28, it could be $28 = .28 points.

I think the 2014 Bowl Game Seat Gift is included in Bonus Points - though it isn't noted specifically.
yeah, the seat gift as others have noted is in the current year contribution line. For me the Bowl Tix can't be in the Bonus points becuase I only got 5 and that was the early Dec payoff. I didn't get anything under bonus points for the 2 tix I bought.

(wish I had copied my "calculation page" from last year so I could do the accounting and compare).
 
Here's an interesting little tidbit I just found out after going back and forth with the foundation today. Any funds (corp match funds) that come thru AFTER April 30, 2014 but BEFORE the fiscal year starts (July 1) do NOT count towards annual giving for the next year's PP/Parking. Those funds only count towards Lifetime Giving (at 1/10th the benefit) or Priority Points for Bowl Tix and Baskketball Season Tix.

I had funds come thru on June 26th of 2014...they were after the fact for last year's parking (I get that)...but they don't count towards this year's either? can you say "mind the gap"... now I have to manage WHEN my corp matches come thru..seems like an easy adjustment for them to make but it is Rutgers ya know...oh well.
 

Thanks I already did. Waiting to hear back.

A number of years ago (2007 or 08) the same thing happened. I ended up in the RAC lot because they didn't credit my acct and I didn't know till I received the tickets and pass. Back then they said they couldn't do anything about it because it was too late.

Yeah, I've & I think many have been aware of this May 1 - June 30 gap. It's amazing that they haven't addressed this by now. Nonetheless, you just have to time your donations & matching gifts to avoid this 2 month black hole.
 
predict the cutoff for parking? I think every lot goes up by 15 pts.

That would be a large increase IMO, but I have no clue how they decide. I understood last years increase since they counted seat gift $$ towards PP. This year there is no reason to increase by that much.

I would think there would be a few upset customers if it went that high.
