Vaccinated students eligible to win $7,000 scholarships, other awards
UW System has announced that COVID-19-vaccinated students who attend universities that achieve at least 70 percent vaccination rates by Oct. 15 will be eligible to win one of 70 scholarships valued at $7,000 each.
In addition to the scholarships, beginning in August, UW-Whitewater will give 10 vaccinated students $500 awards through a weekly drawing. Funding for the drawing is made possible by donations to the UW-Whitewater Foundation to support our students during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In order to be eligible to win these incentives, a UW-Whitewater student must be vaccinated against COVID-19 and have submitted proof of vaccination to UW-Whitewater.
Help us reach the 70 percent threshold, Warhawks! Get vaccinated, and submit your proof of vaccination as soon as possible. More information on these awards will be shared soon on the Warhawks Are Back website.
