psygeek... just a quick follow up I have a completely funded offer and the stipend exceeds the cost of living (which I think is similar to your case).And on the acceptance letter the department explicitly stated that the funding will be for five years if I'm in good standing. Does that mean I need only the acceptance letter and I20 and not any extra proof of funding ( like a bank statement)?

Applying to 8 - 10 schools ( I thought it was a lot until I read somebody applying to 25 schools). I have completed 5 already and working on four atm. Hoping to submit them by the end of the week
