To be eligible to receive a prize, you must be vaccinated against COVID-19 and verify your vaccination status. Visit the Vax to Win website for full details of this exciting program.

The COVID-19 vaccine is safe, effective, and free. The University urges every member of the campus community to be vaccinated, and many members of the campus community are required to be vaccinated. Please visit the EMU Safe program website to review our comprehensive COVID-19 mitigation program and to learn about opportunities to receive a free vaccine on campus or other locations.
