The House Cup Point Store allows for you to personally benefit from the points you submit. While community building is truly the most important part of the House Cup Competition, we wanted to create a space for individuals to feel connected to the competition and reward frequent submissions. Hence the evolution of the House Cup Point Store.
In the store, you have the ability to trade in the points you have earned for various UH branded merchandise. The items available in the store are only available here! Please note that when you "trade-in" your points for an item, this does NOT subtract from your House's total. All points ever recorded for your House will be used in the competition.
The store will only be open specified weeks of the semester. The Friday before the store goes live, you will be emailed your current total of House Cup Points. At that time, point submission tallying will be paused to process the store order forms.
In this site, you will find details of the various items available in the store, the number of points needed to trade in, and the "order" form.
If you have any questions about the House Cup Point Store, feel free to contact Assistant Director Chelsea Bradford at cbrad2@umd.edu.
The Point Store will only be available the following weeks to trade in points for items. Students will be notified of their point totals the week before the store opens so they can plan their points accordingly.
Release weeks for the 2025-2026 academic year will be released in September 2025.
When the store is open, students will be able to find the link to the order form here.
