Hi Tom,
It is better to use the word "degree" and the verb"have".
He has a graduate degree in English.
He has an M.A. degree in English.
He has a B.A. degree in English. etc.

Hi Tom

I'd simply use 'has' in your sentences. People do not generally use 'is' (except possibly in your first group). Using 'hold' is possible, but is definitely not the most typical wording.

Regarding the punctuation, be consistent. Use either all or nothing:
Ph.D. or PhD
M.A. or MA
B.A. or BA
