dismissed EB-2 Case: Information Technology
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the director determined the beneficiary did not possess the foreign equivalent of a U.S. baccalaureate degree. The AAO found that the beneficiary's three-year Bachelor of Science degree combined with an advanced diploma did not meet the standard of a four-year U.S. bachelor's degree, which is a prerequisite for the advanced degree classification.
