Hello,

I'm an international student applying to US for PhD. I was nominated for Fulbright Graduate Award which can fund my first (and possibly second year) of my potential PhD. Is it a big asset for application?

It would certainly help, I don't think anyone can tell you just how big of an asset it would be though. I'd assume if you got that award though you'd stand a real likelihood of getting into the top PhD schools in the US, I don't know what your stats are though and etc.
