I don't think you have a chance at using your 3-year degree except to get some jobs requiring a BA/BS. You're unlikely to find a US grad school willing to accept your unaccredited 3-year degree from Sri Lanka as equivalent to an accredited BA degree. Furthermore, I doubt you will be able to transfer courses from a foreign eval that says your school is unaccredited to any accredited US school like TESU. It doesn't hurt to try to transfer your courses or degree if you're willing to gamble a few hundred dollars, but I suspect you will get zero. I think the eval service giving you the non-accredited transcript is just ripping you off because you'll get nothing for it.
You can still use your 3-year degree as equivalent to a BA/BS (don't mention it's a 3-year degree) for employment purposes as long as the employer is not too picky about educational requirements. If the employer asks for a foreign eval, you're probably not getting the job.
I think you should plan on starting over from zero. But it's not a total loss. Your previous knowledge plus the knowledge from this board can help you earn an accredited US bachelor's degree a lot faster than four years.
