Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition, concluding the Beneficiary's Mexican 'Licenciatura' degree was not the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor's degree. The AAO sustained the appeal, finding that the Beneficiary's university transcript, which reflected ten trimesters and over 132 credit hours of coursework, along with a credible educational equivalency evaluation, established that the degree was equivalent to a four-year U.S. bachelor's degree, thereby meeting the labor certification requirements.
