Rising Rebs
Rising Rebs empowers recent University of Mississippi graduates to establish themselves in the Ole Miss Athletics community through philanthropic support. The program provides a pathway for young alumni to make an immediate and lasting impact on student-athletes, athletic programs, and the future of Ole Miss Athletics.
Eligibility
Open to individuals who have earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Mississippi within the last four (4) calendar years.
Graduates who remain at Ole Miss, immediately after concluding their undergraduate tenure, for graduate, law, medical, or professional school, may defer eligibility until the completion of their final Ole Miss degree. Their four-year eligibility window begins at that graduation date.
Graduates who pursue advanced degrees at institutions other than Ole Miss are not eligible beyond their undergraduate window.
Membership requires an annual $50 Membership Fee, not tied to seat or parking donations.
Membership Benefits
Double Priority Points
Rising Rebs members earn 2x Ole Miss Athletics Priority Points on all gifts made while enrolled in the program.
A maximum of $4,000 in total contributions per year is eligible for the 2x point multiplier. Any giving beyond that amount will accrue points at the standard rate.
Example: A $100 philanthropic gift is credited as 2 priority points instead of 1. A $100 seat donation is credited as 1 priority point instead of ½.
Enhanced Stewardship Recognition
All members are stewarded at 2x the member’s giving within the Annual Fund stewardship chart.
Example: A $150 gift is recognized and stewarded at the $300 level.
Young Alumni Tailgate Access
Exclusive access to the Young Alumni Tailgate, in partnership with the Ole Miss Alumni Association.
