Evidence

The Leland Stanford Jr 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 The Leland Stanford Jr University’s HR or international office and an immigration attorney. Request a correction.
