Can a part time student get income support & housing benefit?
Yes indeed it is fully possible as a part-time student (not full time) as being in receipt of DLA classifies you as a disabled student. You will need to write to the Job Centre to seek permission and emphasise why studying is possible but work is not (ie you don’t have to go in when poorly etc). With income support you will receive your fees paid and a small grant (£250 if I remember rightly) you can also apply for a Disabled Students Allowance if it is Higher Ed – depending on your disability – ask the disability adviser at the college/uni. All the best.
