Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the prior decision was based on an incorrect application of law. The AAO affirmed its previous finding that while the petitioner met three evidentiary criteria (awards, published material, and judging), the totality of the evidence did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim, or that the petitioner is among the small percentage at the very top of the field, as required by the final merits determination under the Kazarian framework.
