jujubea Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Does anyone know what the range of amounts is for receiving UCSB's "central fellowship" as a newly admitted graduate student? Or what is a typical package? They don't publish this info on UCSB's website, or anywhere else that I've been able to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jujubea Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Another gradcafe-er PM'd they received 27k from the central fellowship, in an unrelated major, but still in the humanities. The results search shows someone in physics getting 32k, and someone in English getting 29k. Anyone else able to guesstimate or contribute data?

smg Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 No clue. I've been accepted into their Anthro MA/PhD program without a word on funding other than the vast majority of students receive TA-ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mngrue Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) I just found out I got a Central Fellowship in Education and mine's for $24,000, which I felt was a lot until I saw these numbers... I've been told getting any funding in my department is rare, though, so I'm thrilled. Edited February 25, 2015 by mngrue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jujubea Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hi mngrue - it looks like it's all over the board. How were you notified of the fellowship award? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mngrue Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 My advisor told me I would be getting one, but she didn't know the amount. The Vice Chair of our department (Education) emailed me with the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassy_grad_24 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 UCSB Central Fellowships are the ones given by the graduate division and students must be nominated by faculty in their department to the grad div. Grad Div then sends your application packet (which for new students is your grad school application) to a committee of faculty from across campus (all diff disciplines) to be read and scored. Cent Fellowships include Tuition, Health Insurance and a $24k stipend. Student fees are not included. You have to pay those on your own. They're $250-300 I think. Go Gauchos!
