Yes, an MBA is a graduate degree.  What are you trying to do? Are you answering questions about educaiton credits? You are not eligible for the American Opportunity Credit if you are working on a master's degree, but you may be able to get the Lifetime Learning Credit.

Thanks.   I was just exploring deductions and stumbled onto the question above and it just struck me as odd the way it was asking what type of degree - like there was a set of types I wasn't aware of.   I guess some people go to college without seeking a degree.  Maybe a certificate program or just auditing classes for fun.
