Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the second prong of the Dhanasar framework, which requires demonstrating they are well-positioned to advance their proposed endeavor. The AAO agreed with the Director that the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence, such as a detailed business plan or proof of progress, to show his ability to succeed in establishing his proposed online university.
