once the child gets past a certain age (think its 18) they will no longer be eligible to receive child benefits for that person.

Is it yourself going to uni?

Nope, you won't get EMA at uni... but if you spend 3-years at college/sixth form then you'll get it for an extra year.

actually,child benefit is paid if the individual is under 19yrs of age and in further education,ie. at college doing A'levels...it is only stopped when the child gets to their 19th birthday...

but getting back to the question in hand..no, you don't get ema at uni and yep, if you are still in further education, that is AVCE,A'levels, etc..u can effectively get a third year of ema money...
