Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not meet the initial eligibility requirement of satisfying at least three of the ten evidentiary criteria. The AAO determined that the petitioner's award was local or regional, not a nationally or internationally recognized prize for excellence. As the petitioner failed to meet the minimum threshold of criteria, the petition was ultimately denied.
