Hello, is it possible to attend an adult college course whilst claiming? 
ESA, pip, universal credit although don’t always qualify for UC, depends on husband income

    Yes, it's possible to attend full time. If there's a student maintenance loan available to you then it will affect your UC, even if you decide not to take that loan. 

    It will not affect your New style ESA or PIP as both of those are not means tested.
