"Due to the lack of federal funds for pandemic precautions this term, all students will initially be charged $500 for the fall term to offset continual weekly antigen testing and quarantining," the university stated on its website."Students who are fully vaccinated prior to the beginning of the fall term will receive an immediate $500 rebate."
