Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for the required minimum of three criteria. The evidence for the 'memberships' criterion did not prove the association required outstanding achievements for membership, as its criteria were based on student GPA or class rank. The evidence for the 'judging' criterion was disqualified as it related to activities that occurred after the petition's filing date.
