Support includes tuition, 80% of health insurance premium for a single person and a stipend ($27,000 effective June 1, 2012) to cover living expenses. Additionally, students who successfully compete for external fellowships will receive a $2,000 yearly supplement to his/her stipend for the length of the fellowship award, as long as it covers at least 75% of their stipend.
