Does anyone know about EMA

[Marmite]

Im planning to go back into college in september, at which point my baby would be about 7months. But I belive you can't claim income support while you are in education.

I was considering just taking 2 subjects rather than the usual three, but I read that you can only receive EMA if you are in full time education, and im not sure that 2 subjects would be enough... any ideas? I'm not to sure about trying to tackle more than 2 subjects as well as being a first time mum
