    Hi, I'm planning on applying for btea for when I start my third level course. I know the initial qualifying period is 9 months on jobseekers allowence to be eligible which is grand, but what I cant find any information is what the situation is when continuing onto the second and third year of the course. For the summer months when I'm not in college can I work full/part time and still continue with btea when I resume college or what? From the little I've read it seems like I have to meet the initial requirements of being on jobseekers for another nine months before commencing my second year, which obviously makes no sense because there's only 3/4 months gap between each college year. Anyone with any information will be appreciated, thanks!
