Lying about graduating early on resume

I am a freshman currently looking for summer internship opportunities and there is a position for sophomores ("planning on graduating in 2023" in job posting) that I am interested in. If I lied about my plans to graduate early would it fuck me? I wouldn't even be interested in working at the place FT after graduation if I end up getting the internship anyways.

Know a kid from my school who did this a few years ago at a BB. Ended up not graduating early and still got a full time going there back to back summers. Don’t ask for permission ask for forgiveness.

 

I did it - landed a role at MM PE this summer. If you have any AP credits you can use that to justify the 2023 graduation. It got brought up during some HR screens - I just said that if I'm happy with my summer role I'm looking to graduate early otherwise I'll graduate in 2024 which is actually my plan. None of the FO people brought it up - you'll be fine.
