Decision Summary
Although the AAO found that the petitioner satisfied the initial evidentiary requirement by meeting three criteria (judging, scholarly articles, and original contributions), the appeal was ultimately dismissed. Upon conducting a final merits determination, the AAO concluded that the totality of the evidence did not demonstrate that the petitioner had achieved sustained national or international acclaim or was among the small percentage at the very top of the field.
