missingnepal,
The question is not if you can use transcript instead of diploma but whether you have enough credits to graduate before April 1, day when H-1 is filed. What this means, if you are an undergraduate, is that technically you could have graduated last semester given the requirements of your major and even if you fail all your classes this semester, you should still have an undergraduate degree.
If you are doing a graduate degree, then what I have said won't apply as you already have a bachelor's degree and can apply anyway.
