Another state University says if you aren't vaccinated, you'll undergo weekly COVID testing.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Central Michigan University will require all students, faculty and staff to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or participate in weekly COVID-19 testing for the fall semester.

Several Michigan schools have gone all-in on COVID-19 vaccine requirements for the fall including the University of Michigan, Michigan State University and Wayne State University.

Some other schools are only requiring those living on campus to be vaccinated or are stopping at mask mandates.

CMU will require face masks in all classrooms, instructional areas and all enclosed indoor spaces with more than 25 individuals.

Classes start Aug. 30.
