Does a bachelor's degree from China count as "Earned four years of college credit"?

@fabphilnee  assuming that you are a Non-Resident Alien in the USA on a F-1 visa, if your school that you are attending accepts the  degree from China, then you have completed  4 year degree  for purposes of student credits etc.  Is that what you are trying to do -- educational credits ?   These are generally not available to international students -- only citizens and Permanent residents.

Tell me more  , so I understand what you are trying to do --yes ?

Most likely, the "Not have finished the first four years of higher education at the beginning of the tax year" does not specify in the U.S.
