MSE@UMD PhD 还没审材料就要proof，怎么办

MSE@UMD PhD 当时提交了个 financial proof，但是上面全写的0，这是根据师兄的意见做的，他去年就是这样拿到fellowship。
结果今天收到了Enrollment Service Operations(umdmvs.umd.edu)邮件说如果没拿到assistantship,或者不够，得提交proof of finance,提交了这个之后happy to evaluate your application.这不是矛盾嘛， 你不审材料，不说给多少钱，我怎么知道需不需要叫财产证明？再说我当时都写了0了，一分钱没有。。

各位申了UMD engineering的 谁有类似的情况啊，或者告诉我咋办呢。。。
邮件如下：Thank you for your interest in attending the University of
