Mature College Student - Access Course to HE In Criminology

Hello Reddit community, I’m classed as mature student I’m 21 years old and doing a 1 year access course in criminology.

Just wondering if I can do anything else finically to help me I’m claiming Universal credit (benefits) to support myself as I don’t work but I haven’t informed them I’m classed as full time student:/ I live on my own in a 10 bedroom house/ shared accommodation which isn’t the nicest to afford to be able to study well to bring down the costs of my previous flat that was £650+ a month inc bills. I now pay £385 a mont bills included.

I applied for a student loan for the course which has all been approved but is their anything else I can do to boost my income minus the obvious of working? Where I live due to the COVID situation their isn’t anything available on the days I’m not at college... All help is massively appreciated, thanks👍🏽
