Am I entitled to anything while off from college?

So as the title suggests, am I entitled to any sort of jobseekers or anything at all? I personally don't think I am but everyone keeps saying I am, I just want to make sure is all

If you are a mature student, i.e., over 23 years of age on or before 1st January in the year in which your course of study commenced, then you may be eligible to apply for Jobseekers in the summers between academic years, assuming you meet the other criteria.
