    I imagine that you'll be doing an Access course this year and are asking for information on funding for this, rather than for the nursing degree.

    Full time students are ineligible for benefits unless they are lone parents or disabled, although you'll pay no council tax as both you and your daughter are students. Fortunately you'll have your redundancy payment to live on to enable you to achieve your dream.
