Probably not. I doubt it's an "eligible educational
institution" as described in IRS Publication 970.

Default Education credit : international institutions

My spouse wants to go for a Msc. degree through an
university in U.K. Is it possible to get any kind of tax
exemption for this kind of education expenses done by US
residents ? Can the Education credit (Lifetime learning
credit) be used for distance education taken in
international institutions ?
