Hi Sam,

Is your course full time or part time? Is your course undergraduate? Do you have any dependents?

Thanks,
Claire

On the application it will ask you if you have children and how many. The form will ask you if you wish to apply for Parents Learning Allowance, Childcare, if you said yes to these we would automatically assess you for them when we receive the child evidence which is a copy of the birth certificates and copy of your up to date tax credit letter or child benefit letter or universal credit letter.

Thanks,
Claire
