Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of her proposed endeavor, a virtual reality educational tool. The Director found her claims were too general to the field of education rather than specific to her project's prospective impact. The petitioner also failed to resolve inconsistencies in the record and did not sufficiently demonstrate she was well-positioned to advance the endeavor or that a waiver would be in the national interest.
