Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three required evidentiary criteria. While the Director had already conceded two criteria (lesser awards and published material), the AAO found the petitioner did not establish that she had made original contributions of major significance to her field. The letters of support were deemed too general and did not sufficiently explain how her work had a broad impact or influence on the field of architectural design.
