Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under the requested visa category. The director found the petitioner did not qualify as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree because his foreign degree was not equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree. The petitioner also failed to demonstrate that he met the requisite number of criteria to be considered an alien of exceptional ability.
