If you study at an international college and transfer your last semester before graduating to a US university?

if you study at an international college and transfer your last semester before graduating to a US university. on your diploma would it say you graduated from an American university and the only way anyone would know different is to look at transcripts. Like if you studied at American university Cairo and transferd to Harvard or Yale or a school like that wouldn’t you have technically graduated for one of these schools and it would be easier to find a job instead of having an AUC diploma upon graduation.

Yes it does, it would say you graduated at the American university. But it’s not that simple. Not all credits you’ve earned may be transferable so most likely you will end up spending more than a semester at the university you are transferring to. Also many universities require transfer students to take a certain amount of credits before they can graduate at that university, usually at least a year or so. This is the reason why many universities don’t even accept seniors. So graduating in just one semester at the new University is highly unlikely.
