The Petitioner's proposed endeavor was neither specific nor consistent, changing materially at each stage of proceedings. Material changes to a petition are not permissible, and generalized conclusory statements without specific impact evidence lack probative value. The record does not show national importance.

AAO agrees the endeavor has substantial merit but lacks national importance: the opinion letter and reference letters fail to address the specific endeavor's broader implications, and the business plan's revenue/staffing projections do not show substantial positive economic effects or significant U.S. job creation.

The regulatory definition of 'advanced degree' encompasses 'any' foreign equivalent degree above baccalaureate, without requiring that the degree be in the same field as the proposed endeavor. The Petitioner's master's in higher education therefore qualifies.

New appeal evidence was not considered because the Petitioner failed to submit it in response to the RFE. Even if considered, 10 cumulative citations and indirect citation logic are insufficient; access counts without comparative data or citation evidence do not demonstrate major significance; and the peer-reviewed article was not the Petitioner's own original contribution.

lesser nationally or internationally recognized prizes or awards
AAO 为什么未被说服
The invitation to a seminar does not constitute an award or prize, and the only documented 'award' was an NSF grant to a university to support unnamed American scientists — not an award to the Petitioner personally. The NII News publication lacked a required English translation.

leading or critical role for distinguished organizations or establishments
AAO 为什么未被说服
The Petitioner relied on academic achievements and association memberships rather than demonstrating a leading or critical role. The HR letter from his employer lacked sufficient detail, and no evidence of distinguished reputation was provided for his employer. His IEEE membership post-dated the petition filing.
