foreign degree equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO consulted EDGE, which states postgraduate diplomas combined with three-year degrees can equate to a U.S. bachelor's only if issued by an accredited university or AICTE-approved institution; the diploma's issuer is neither. The H-1B equivalency regulations permitting combinations do not apply to EB-2 advanced-degree professionals.
