Universal Credit and Student loans at end of degree course

[Part 2]

My son has just finished his degree. Well he has one piece of work to do but officially his course has ended.

Information online suggests he can claim UC from the day after his course ended but I remember a time when student loan was expected to last until September. He has some student loan left and a job starting in September albeit part time.

Does anyone know if it's worth making a claim now?

Make the claim now. afaik although my info is a few years out of date, SF doesn't cover summers (although child credits/income support covers the summer between FE and HE)
