Advanced Education / Universal Credit

Waiting to hear back from UC but very impatient 
Cannot find confirmation online so hoped someone had a similar experience.
Our 18 year old (turns 19 in January) starts an HND full time course on 31st August.
He is still at home and dependent on us, apart from a wee part time job.
Will we still get UC for him, does anyone know?
Thanks
PS - new account as locked out of old one x

I think an HND counts as advanced education which means you will not be entitled to Child Benefit or Universal Credit for them.
