semester grades doen't matter. You need the master's degree certificate to apply for H1b under master's quota. As far as I know, on university diploma there won't be anything about your grades. Just to let you know that people do get H1 even without finishing master's, but you get H1 easily...

Hello to all, I am facing a strange situation ( I had also put my confusion to this forum before). My spouse's company had lost my H4 receipt number and after much work the company had given me four H4 receipt numbers which they had received from USCIS. The company told me that they had filed...
