UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY
UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY filed its first LCA in FY2026 and has 66 filings so far. A sponsorship history this short says little about how it handles a case that goes wrong.
- New positions, FY2026
- 28
- Lifetime filings
- 66
- Worker positions
- 66
- Median offered wage
- $95,000
Positions filed as NEW employment in the latest filed fiscal year — the closest honest read on new people being sponsored.
Labor condition applications across every fiscal year in the corpus.
FY2026 – FY2026
Positions on those applications — NOT people and NOT visas granted. A worker renewed three times counts three times.
Derived at read time from the $5,000 wage bands, across every occupation.

Filing volume
Filings, worker positions and new-employment positions per fiscal year. Three different measurements, never added together.
| Fiscal year | Filings | Worker positions | New-employment positions |
|---|---|---|---|
| FY2026Oct 2025 – Sep 2026 | 66 | 66 | 28 |
Case status (filings)
| Bucket | Count | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Certified | 59 | 89.4% |
| Certified, then withdrawn | 4 | 6.1% |
| Withdrawn before decision | 2 | 3.0% |
| Denied | 1 | 1.5% |
Petition type (positions)
| Bucket | Count | Share |
|---|---|---|
| New employment | 28 | 42.4% |
| Continued employment (renewal) | 29 | 43.9% |
| Change of previous employment | 1 | 1.5% |
| Change of employer | 5 | 7.6% |
| Amended petition | 3 | 4.5% |
44% of this employer's petition-type positions are continued employment — the same worker renewed. That is why the headline figure above is new-employment positions rather than filings: an employer renewing the same staff every three years produces the same filing volume as one hiring that many new people, and the two are not the same opportunity.

The job title is whatever the employer wrote on the application. Nothing is reclassified, and the wage band is derived from the $5,000 bands rather than read from a stored average.

Outcomes
Derived at read time from the stored approval and denial counts. Nothing here is a stored rate.

- Basis
- DOL decisions
US Department of Labor decisions on the applications, not petition outcomes.
64 adjudicated
Two different measurements. They are never blended into one rate.
A certified-then-withdrawn application was approved and pulled afterwards, so it counts as an approval. An application withdrawn before a decision was never adjudicated and is excluded from the denominator entirely — counting it as a denial would invent a rejection that never happened.
