If you had put all those time into 1 long term project or two, like that highschool kid I linked above who nearly got a Google SWE internship, or like this 14 year old kid who started learning how to build an operating system last year in lockdown time and now has this to show for, you would've been miles ahead of the competition and interning at Google by your freshman year or have strong chance to get into FANG by the time you graduate. Instead you are here, thinking about what school to waste money on, scheming about a several year plan where you have a smaller chance get to one of these FANG companies. I said smaller chance because you can't just transfer from a top PH university to a US target school for CS unless you won a renowned international competition, your best chance then in your proposed path is either:
