Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish sustained national or international acclaim. The AAO determined that the petitioner's academic scholarships and grants did not qualify as nationally recognized prizes for excellence. Furthermore, the evidence did not show that her memberships in professional associations required outstanding achievements, and she failed to provide evidence of published material about her work.
