Wow, that's a great fellowship, with those 30k you should be able to hire your own part time RA and travel to more conferences and stuff like that . That is a very nice offer, and specially since Charlottesville is definitely not an expensive place. So yeah, my friend and I applied for CS so this might not be relevant, but thanks for the info anyways!
Good luck with the rest of your applications
May I ask about the funding for UVA? I applied there and havent even heard from them yet, I'm just curious about funding since my friend got in there and havent heard about funding yet.

That's the URL, but my status has not been updated yet. I think that's because the status comes from the Graduate OFfice, but the email was sent from the Computer Science department, so I guess it will take a few days to get updated. Good luck!
