Cougar Vaccination Incentive Program now open

The University of Houston has created a new, voluntary program called the Cougar Vaccination Incentive Program that will give each student who chooses to participate $50 in ShastaBUCKS and make them eligible for other incentives! Randomly selected participants will be eligible for:

  • Two semesters of paid tuition and fees (one student)
  • One semester of paid tuition and fees (two students)
  • Student-zoned parking permits for 2021-2022 (five students)

If you have already received your COVID-19 vaccination, please log in to AccessUH and click on the Cougar Vaccination Incentive Program icon. You will receive specific instructions how to upload your documentation for verification. Please note: this documentation will be deleted once it has been verified.

The $50 in ShastaBUCKS incentive will be distributed beginning the week of August 23 — after verification of documentation is confirmed by the Cougar Card Office — and will continue through September 30. The additional incentives of tuition and fees and parking permits will be awarded the week of October 4. For more information about the Cougar Vaccination Incentive Program, please email coogvip@uh.edu.
