    If you're studying part-time you could start signing on for Jobseeker's Benefit, as far as I know, as technically you would be available for part-time work. Although, if you've already checked about BTEA then they may have told you that already.

    Also, if you're not working, is there any chance you could just switch to studying full-time? I know it depends on the course but if you're just starting this year you could maybe take it on a full-time basis instead.
