Case Summary:
We’re proud to share the NIW approval story of a dedicated professor, also a Ph.D. holder in educational leadership and policy (comparative education), whose work is driving strategic change in refugee education and inclusion. His proposed endeavor centers on developing education campaigns and persuasive messaging strategies that promote school enrollment among refugee populations and raise public awareness of the social determinants of education.
The client, a professor and researcher in political studies and comparative education, aims to address challenges facing marginalized communities by exploring key intersections between ethnic identity, migration, conflict, and education policy. At the time of filing, he was actively engaged in academic research and editorial responsibilities, and planned to continue his work at a U.S.-based institution in a similar role.
His NIW petition was supported by:
● 19 peer-reviewed journal articles, 1 book chapter, and 1 authored book;
● 68 total citations, including multiple papers ranked among the top 10–20% most cited in social sciences for their publication years;
● 2 completed peer reviews and editorial leadership positions for reputable journals in political science and education.
The petition emphasized the national importance of his proposed work, citing its relevance to refugee integration, economic growth through educational advancement, and social cohesion. His research has shaped global discussions on female education, diaspora dynamics, and the rights of ethnic minorities, and has been actively cited in international policy and development literature.
With a proven record of academic impact and a clear plan for continuing his work in the U.S., the client’s case has been approved after 11 months and 15 days, without receiving any RFE. We are pleased to celebrate this approval and look forward to his continued contributions to inclusive and transformative education strategies.
