Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the beneficiary's three-year bachelor's degree from India was not considered equivalent to a U.S. four-year baccalaureate degree. The AAO affirmed that a full baccalaureate degree is a mandatory prerequisite, and a combination of a three-year degree and work experience cannot be used to meet this initial requirement for the EB-2 category.
