Barclays top up loans

Hi

I have just been reading on the barclays website about their top up loans and just wondered if they applied to career development loans. I decided to split the cost of my Msc at uni with a £4,000 CDL and a part time job to pay course fees, rent, bills, etc. Unfortunately, since moving back to uni in september i have been unable to find work and the loan is quickly running out, with the next round of bills due next month. I have tried all avenues of funding including the university, and the only thing left i can think of at the moment is to ask the bank for a top up loan but i dont know if they apply to CDLs. Anyone ever dealt with top up loans know more about them and if a CDL can be increased?

Thanks
