How does that work? Do they just let foreigners into their University? And does this get accepted in any western state? Also, good luck ever working for a defense company or anything sensitive after that, I guess.

And does this get accepted in any western state?
What do you mean “accepted”? Is it illegal to learn in a country even if it’s a dictatorship? Last two Kims and The Sister got education in Europe, btw. New kids will do so too and then will return to reign.

> What do you mean “accepted”?
Universities have to be accredited for other universities to accept their transfer credits.
If companies want you to have a four-year degree then they have to believe you when you say you have one.
> Is it illegal to learn in a country even if it’s a dictatorship?
It's illegal for US citizens to do a lot of things with North Korea specifically, if you don't have permission first. That's how economic sanctions work.
