Urgent Ds-160 Question

Hi all!

I have been trying to fill out the ds-160 form but I got stuck at a question. So, I will pursue a PhD degree with a TAship (tuition waiver+ regular stipend). In the “travel” section, the form wants me to specify the person/entity paying for my trip. Should I choose “Self” or should i choose “other organization” and enter the name of the university?

I would guess “self” since you are paying for it out of salaried/stipend funds (the organization is not paying for you; they are paying you). But I suggest you contact the Department of State to be sure.
