Ivy Tech Community College will offer walk-in COVID-19 vaccination clinics throughout the state from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, including a clinic at the Columbus campus, 4475 Central Ave.

Individuals who receive a vaccine will be entered to win a free laptop provided by the college. Winners in the laptop drawing will be able to choose between a Mac or PC.

All 19 Ivy Tech campuses throughout the state will host clinic sites and vaccines will be offered on a first-come, first-serve basis as supply is limited.

Ivy Tech is hosting clinics in an effort to help increase vaccination rates through partnerships with the US Department of Education and Walmart pharmacy. The vaccine offered will vary throughout the state. A state issued ID will be required at all campus locations to receive the vaccine.
