Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition for failing to meet at least three criteria. The AAO disagreed with the Director's assessment of the 'judging' criterion, finding that the Petitioner's role in evaluating student auditions for a university music program was sufficient to meet it. Because the Petitioner now satisfied the threshold of three criteria, the case was remanded for the Director to conduct the final merits determination.
