Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under the required number of criteria. The evidence for the 'prizes or awards' criterion was deemed insufficient, as the petitioner did not demonstrate that the awards were nationally or internationally recognized for excellence in the field. A student award was not considered for excellence in the petitioner's professional field of endeavor.
