Usually full time students are not eligible for state benefits, whatever their nationality. Most EEA nationals are not eligible for the following benefits:
Jobseekers Allowance (income-based) and Income support
Housing Benefits
Council Tax Benefit
There are some exceptions for example, if you are a single parent you may qualify for some of these benefits.
