The University of Virginia (UVA) removed hundreds of students from its enrollment list after they failed to update their status saying they had received the COVID-19 vaccine.

The Virginian-Pilot reported that UVA disenrolled 238 students for not complaining with the school’s COVID-19 vaccine requirement, though it does appear the majority of those disenrolled were not currently enrolled in fall courses. The outlet reported that just 49 of the disenrolled students were enrolled in fall courses. UVA spokesman Bryan Coy told the outlet that “a good number” of the students who had been disenrolled “may not have been planning to return to the University this fall at all.”
