EB-2 Dismissed — Business Analysis (2010): the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree,

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree, even when combined with a professional accounting membership, was not found to be equivalent to a U.S. four-year baccalaureate degree. This foundational U.S. bachelor's degree or its foreign equivalent is a prerequisite for an alien to qualify as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, including through the 'bachelor's plus five years of experience' path.
