Decision Summary
The Director denied the petition, concluding the nonprofit petitioner did not establish it qualified for an H-1B cap exemption through its affiliation with institutions of higher education. The AAO remanded the case, determining that the Director may have overlooked evidence and did not fully address whether the petitioner had an active relationship with the universities that contributed to their educational missions, thus requiring a new decision.
