Despite what OP is telling you, it’s standard for tuition to be waived for accepted PhD students in PhD programs in the US, whether elite or otherwise. There’s exceptions but if the program isn’t waiving your tuition, that’s rare and a huge red flag. Professional schools like law school and medical are a different story.

That's kind of what I thought. I know people that went to Purdue and Connecticut and they basically paid some fees and that's all. The salary they got covered housing and some expenses. I think their out of pocket was less than $5000 a year.
