Evidence
Northwestern University appears to qualify as an institution of higher education as defined in section 101(a) of the Higher Education Act (public or private nonprofit, accredited or pre-accredited, degree-granting), the first ground named in INA 214(g)(5)(A) and 8 CFR 214.2(h)(8)(iii)(F).
“Appears cap-exempt” is a research opinion based on these public sources; USCIS decides each petition, and the affiliated-nonprofit test in particular is fact-specific. Confirm with Northwestern University’s HR or international office and an immigration attorney. Request a correction.
