ESA and career development loans

Hello!

I have recently applied for ESA and I am also a part time MA student. Will I be able to take out this loan if offered, or will this affect my benefits? Just looking for any advice, esp from part time students on ESA.

Thanks

    Are you on IB or CB ESA? Are you taking out the loan just to cover your fees, or for living expenses also?
    Gone ... or have I?
  • CB ESA, and it would be mostly for tuition (I don't want to borrow a huge amount) but a bit for living expenses and course books etc.
