Does Erika Kirk hold an MBA or other graduate degree?

1. What the record actually lists — degrees and fields that appear repeatedly in profiles

Contemporary profiles of Erika Kirk uniformly list two undergraduate degrees in political science and international relations from Arizona State University and a graduate-level legal degree described as a Juris Master or a master’s in American Legal Studies from Liberty University; several pieces additionally note she is pursuing a doctorate in Biblical Studies. None of the sources reviewed identify an MBA among her credentials, and the repeated naming of the American legal studies master’s in multiple independent writeups points to that degree as the graduate credential in her public biography rather than a business administration degree ^{[1] [2]}. This consistency across profiles is the strongest available documentary signal about her educational record.

2. Conflicting or missing evidence — suspended pages and unavailable text that complicate verification

A handful of links and citations in the aggregated material refer to pages that are currently suspended or inaccessible, which leaves gaps in the documentary chain. Those suspended accounts are recorded as failing to provide text, and the analyses note that absence explicitly; the suspension means we cannot use those pages to corroborate details or locate alternative transcripts that might mention an MBA ^{[5] [6]}. The presence of suspended or inaccessible pages increases uncertainty only in the narrow sense that an affirmative MBA claim could once have been made on a source now unavailable; it does not provide affirmative evidence for an MBA and therefore cannot overcome the consistent absence of that credential in the accessible biographies.

3. Why multiple outlets list a legal master’s and not an MBA — patterns in reporting

Journalists and biographical profiles appear to rely on public statements, university listings, and organizational bios that emphasize legal and theological study in Kirk’s post‑undergraduate trajectory. The recurrence of Liberty University’s American Legal Studies master’s degree in profiles suggests reporters traced a verifiable enrollment and award, whereas an MBA claim lacks corroboration in the same records. Several pieces explicitly describe the Liberty credential as a master’s in American legal studies or a Juris Master and mention doctoral study, which explains why sources are converging on legal and biblical studies rather than business administration ^{[2] [1] [4]}.

4. What remaining questions are worth resolving — what verification would close the loop

To definitively close the question, authoritative primary documentation is required: either a verifiable university transcript or an official curriculum vitae from Erika Kirk or Turning Point USA listing an MBA, or a statement from the degree-granting institution confirming an MBA award. Absent those, the public record as aggregated in recent profiles supports the conclusion that her graduate credential is in legal studies, not business administration. The suspended pages might once have contained competing claims; retrieving archived copies or institutional confirmations would be the most direct route to settle any lingering dispute ^{[5] [6] [1]}.

5. Bottom line and how to use this finding responsibly moving forward

The available and consistent evidence identifies Erika Kirk as holding a master’s in legal studies (Juris Master/American Legal Studies) from Liberty University and pursuing doctoral work, with no verified MBA in public records. Reporters, researchers, or organizations making credential claims should cite the Liberty University master’s if referencing her graduate education and should refrain from asserting an MBA without producing primary documentation. The pattern across recent biographies makes the MBA claim unsubstantiated; primary-source verification is the standard necessary to change that assessment ^{[1] [2] [3] [4]}.
