[UNPUBLISHED]
 

  PER CURIAM.
 

  After an unsuccessful appeal to the Merit Systems Protection Board, Jeffrey J. Wells brought this pro se action against the Attorney General and the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), alleging that age discrimination caused the rejection of his application for a Border Patrol Agent position. The district court
  
   1
  
  granted summary judgment in favor of defendants, concluding that Wells had not established a prima facie case of age discrimination, that INS had articulated a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason for rejecting his application, and that Wells had failed to show pretext. Wells appeals. After careful
  
   de novo
  
  review of the summary judgment record, we affirm for the reasons stated in the district court’s order dated October 6, 2000.
  
   See
  
  8th Circuit Rule 47B.
