Some 2,000 vaccinations are available today for students living in halls of residence at the University of Kent.
So many came forward for jabs yesterday that some had to be turned away.
They have been told to return this morning to the sports hall which has been converted into a temporary clinic – as more supplies are brought in.
The Department of Health says people who have already left the campus will be able to get a jab from their GP.
But there are growing calls for the programme to be expanded – after a case was confirmed at a second university in the city, Canterbury Christ Church.
At least 10 people with the infection attended the venue Club Chemistry. Its owner has written to the government urging it to roll out a national catch-up vaccination programme.
