Decision Summary
The AAO withdrew the director's initial denial, which was based on a finding that the beneficiary's experience was not progressive. However, the AAO found a new issue: the beneficiary's three-year foreign bachelor's degree is not equivalent to a U.S. baccalaureate degree. Because a U.S. baccalaureate or its foreign equivalent is a prerequisite for establishing advanced degree equivalency through experience, the case was remanded for the director to address this new deficiency.
