No, you do not need to file a 8833 according to the IRS. According to the IRS, you do not need to file if you can claim a treaty exemption that reduces or modifies the taxation of income from dependent personal services, pensions, annuities, social security and other public pensions, or income of artists, athletes, students, trainees, or teachers. This includes taxable scholarship and fellowship grants. Just like you mentioned.
You may also efile with a 1042 S reported in the return.
