Notes
2a/21d/4p (also 3.5 gpa from MS in econ), 2 year ra @top business school. FYI about the acceptance & included offer letter: I "In the table below, I will present the department’s formal award, which includes your payment of in-state tuition, UC Student Health Insurance Program (UCSHIP) premiums, and fees for your first year, as well as four years of employment as a departmental Teaching Assistant starting your 2nd year. This employment will provide you with support in the form of a salary and cover UCSHIP premiums, tuition, and fees in every year that you work as a Teaching Assistant. Your non-resident tuition ($15,102) during the first year will not be covered." tl;dr the offer is you pay $15,102 out-of-state tuition 1st year (but they pay health insurance, which is important in beautiful USA), then years 2-5 you receive average stipend of $23,745 (actually $21273 in 2nd year). They require 3.30 GPA and full enrollment and also expect you to apply for the university scholarships (Graduate summer research mentorship $6,000, Graduate research mentorship program $20,000 +tuition and fees, and Dissertation year fellowship $20,000 +tuition and fees). Offer letter received 3/8/19; open house is 4/7-4/8 (not funded). I will likely decline. Good luck everyone.
