MA State Return Schedule Y Line 11 is showing Tuition pmt, but I am claimed as a dependent and they paid the tuition, so why is this being included as a credit for me?

I'm not familiar with the MA state return at all. However, did you receive a scholarship, grant or 529 distribution that you reported on your tax return?  If yes, then why did you report anything for education on your tax return? If your parents qualify to claim you as a dependent and they are "in fact" claiming you as a dependent, then you should not be reporting anything at all for education stuff on your federal or state return.
