Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility for the required number of evidentiary criteria. The Director only found one criterion met, and the AAO agreed with this assessment. Specifically, the AAO found that achievements cited as awards, such as selection for a substitute professor position and a first-place designation for a master's degree, were not proven to be nationally or internationally recognized prizes for excellence.
