Dear students,

The University of Tulsa is planning for a safe return to pre-pandemic campus life and activities for the fall semester. The surest way to accomplish this goal – and to safeguard against COVID-19 outbreaks and shut-downs on campus – is to promote widespread vaccination of our student body.

Public health experts believe that between 75% and 90% of people need to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in order to prevent community spread and to safeguard against future shut-downs. To date, 27% of our student body has reported to the Alexander Health Center (AHC) that they are fully vaccinated.

To encourage our students to get vaccinated against COVID-19 this summer, TU is pleased to announce a series of student vaccine incentives. Here are the details:

If 75% of our student body is fully vaccinated by July 31, then those students who have been fully vaccinated will be entered into a raffle to win the following prizes:

6 prizes for a President’s Suite Pass at Chapman Stadium (1 winner + 1 guest per home football game)
10 prizes for a free parking pass for the 2021-22 academic year
5 prizes for Athletics Game Day Experiences (guest coaching opportunities, sideline/courtside seating and more)
5 prizes for free coffee at McFarlin Library for the fall semester
10 prizes for priority enrollment for spring 2022
10 pries for priority housing selection for fall 2022

If we reach the 80% student vaccination mark by July 31, we will raffle off the following additional grand prizes to fully vaccinated students:

3 prizes for FREE campus housing for a year (residential students)
3 prizes for a Universal Parking Pass permitting the pass holder to park in any and all TU parking lots on campus for the 2021-22 academic year (commuter students)
5 prizes for up to $2,000 worth of textbooks for the upcoming year (all students)
2 prizes for a new MacBook Air (all students)

To be counted, students must verify their vaccination status by uploading a copy of their COVID-19 Vaccine Record Card to the AHC portal.* Students can track the university’s progress to goal on TU’s COVID-19 Dashboard (updated weekly by end of business on Tuesdays).

Vaccines are available to students at the AHC with no out-of-pocket expense. For your convenience, TU is holding J&J vaccine PODs at the AHC this week (no appointment needed):

June 1: 8:30 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1-3:30 p.m.
June 2: 8:30 a.m.-12 p.m. and 1-3:30 p.m.
June 3: 1-4 p.m.

Please bring your insurance card with you to the vaccine POD. These PODs will offer the single-shot J&J vaccine. Appointments may be made for the Moderna vaccine by contacting the AHC at 918-631-2241.

If you have any questions about TU’s COVID-19 policies, please email covid19@utulsa.edu. Thank you for keeping our community safe and healthy.

Sincerely,

Matt Warren
Vice President for Risk Management and Chief Compliance Officer
