    Hi guys,

    Apologies if this questions has been asked before, I couldn't find anything.

    I'm planning to go back to college in September hopefully, i'm unemployed currently and I'm hoping to get straight onto a degree course and get the back to education allowance,

    My question is, If I dont get accepted for the course I want and I chose to do a plc, can I claim the back to education allowance on that and then carry it over into a degree course the following september or does the 9 months on social welfare requirement kick back in at the end of that plc course?

    Thanks.

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
