It's goot to hear that there are many opportunities. From the grad school website, international student who wants second year funding also need to get the out of state tuition waiver too. Does the TAship position cover this or just the stipends? How hard is it if there are many international students in the same class? since there will be more competition plus given the budget cut across the state in California this might not be good but this assumes another budget tightening in Cal next year.
There seems to be no official visit date but from previous threats, people did visit and had good impression of the arrangement from the dpt and I think jhai did this. I will have to debate on this since it will be out of pocket
