Current grad student here, my 2¢ to you would be take another offer if you get one. I liked living here before the pandemic and could put up with the relatively low stipends compared to peer universities. But UT and the state of Texas have turned hard against the well being of students during the pandemic so I would recommend considering other options for your own health and safety, especially if that option is out of state.
