State Benefits

Have you heard that students cannot get benefits? That's not the whole picture. Some students can study full-time and still get social security benefits. Many more can study part-time and claim. For part-time study information please follow the part-time student link from the Student Support homepage. Full information on Benefits for Higher Education Students on Low Incomes can be found at: Direct Gov. website:

If you have a query or problem you can contact the Benefit Helpline on 0800 88 22 00 or Welfare Rights, an independent expert advisory service based in Lancaster on 01524 37200.
