A college in Tennessee plans to charge students who have not gotten a COVID-19 vaccine over $1,000 per semester, pending the full approval of the vaccines.

Rhodes College said in a recent letter to students that it expects Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the shots before encouraging students to get a jab.
