Hi, need some help regarding universal credit benefit and returning to college. I am 18 year old with a 4 month old son and I would like to return to college however if I am not entitled to claim money I will not be able to support me and my son.
I have rang the call center and they dont seem to know anything about it. If anyone knows anything please let me know.

Ring the college and ask for a face to face appointment with their advise team. Take your documentation with you. They will able to tell you and also advise on their college bursaries and childcare help.

Im in Scotland but i would imagine you'll be entitled to something. Here I would get housing benefit, council tax benefit, child tax credit and the college would give me a bursary/loan depending on level of course plus pay some/all childcare.
