UC Irvine student Iman Siddiqi spearheaded a first-of-its kind scholarship program for UC transfer students who either are asylum seekers or have refugee or asylum status. She organized a fundraiser last weekend that netted close to $100,000. The new Refugee Students Scholarship Program will kick off in the new school year.
