carers credit?

Ive just started university having been a full time carer for a long time. I was claiming carers allowance but wrote to say I am now a full time student so that has stopped. But they sent me a very brief leaflet about carers credit. As I understand it this is a way to protect my pension.
I am still caring full time for someone on HRC DLA, so am I eligible for carer credits even though I am now a student?
