The Alabama school announced the program this week, as the state’s vaccination rate lags behind the rest of the United States.
Fully-vaccinated students attending Auburn in the fall can enter a drawing and there will also be prizes for the campus organizations with the most vaccinated members, according to a post on the school’s website.
Winners will have to show proof that they’ve gotten two shots of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccines or one shot of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine to claim their prizes, the school’s website said.
Auburn plans to “offer a traditional in-person experience for the fall 2021,” its website said.
It will require everyone to wear masks in classrooms and instructional labs, public transportation, health care settings and other marked locations.
Anyone who is not fully vaccinated will be required to wear a mask at all indoor university facilities unless they are eating.
