Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the Petitioner failed to meet the initial evidentiary requirement of satisfying at least three regulatory criteria. The AAO determined the evidence for the 'awards' criterion was insufficient, as the Petitioner did not demonstrate that his medals and competition placements were nationally or internationally recognized prizes for excellence. Since the Petitioner only met one criterion (published material), he was not eligible for the classification.
