As a young parent I was worried that having a child would effect my chances of getting my university degree. 
my partner works full time as a civil engineer whilst I do a law and politics degree at university. 
we live in a two bedroom house and sometimes rely on universal credit to help pay our rent. 
but, today my universal credit took £434 away from our rent because of a university bursary I receive for people who live in impoverish areas. The bursary was around £300 and payed for my law books which I required for my degree. 

My degree will allow me to get a job which will provide more into the tax system. But, universal credits flawed system which fails to aid students will not only make me and my child homeless but will also force me to stop my degree to find a (probably low paid) job.
