Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish that a waiver of the job offer requirement would be in the national interest. The AAO concluded that the petitioner's evidence, including her master's degree, teaching experience, and minor awards, did not demonstrate that she would serve the national interest to a substantially greater degree than an available U.S. worker with the same minimum qualifications. The petitioner's accomplishments were not shown to have a significant impact on her field as a whole.
