My fellowship email said 34k/yr plus 10k in tuition. This was for UT.

In terms of expenses? Maybe about 2k/month. Depending on what standard of living you want 600-1400 for rent.

Separately, I was also a TA. This ıs ın the ballpark of 25/hour wıth a 80% tuıtıon rebate. Beıng an undergrad TA only paıd 10/hr wıth no rebate though.
