The way I understand it is that it's fairly well adjusted for the cost of living wherever the school's located. The stipend from UCLA is around 35k, but Dartmouth's is only ~25k. So yeah, around $10k variance.

I'm going to accrue some dept, because Ramen noodles are going to get really boring after a couple months. That's ok though, this is an investment in future salaries. What's ironic is that I'll be making far less during my post-doc than I am right now, but things should rapidly improve from there.
