Not unless your church organization voluntarily elected to pay unemployment insurance. Churches, even the conglomerates, are not required to pay unemployment insurance and most do not. They are required to tell you when they hire you that they do not pay into the system. Even if you work for a church on the social service or financial side, they still do not pay unemployment insurance and you do not qualify for unemployment if they lay you off.
Some churches act responsibly and pay into the system or allow their members to draw unemployment from the state and reimburse the state for the benefits. Most do not. Unfortunately in this recession, churches are laying off more employees than in previous times and without any severance these employees have no safety net. I am one of these employees and have been without income for six months. Never will I ever work for a church again.

Probably not because 1) You are working full-time, as opposed to being unemployed and 2) most states do not consider realtor, insurance agents, etc. as wage earners, but self-employed or independent contractors and other commission only workers. Check with your state's unemployment office for clarification. See the Related Link below for information on your state.

If you are on unemployment you can collect it as long as the weeks that are set out for you - it will ask for you information and you have to tell them you're a student. <><> You can collect for only as long as you are in compliance with your state's regulations, such as being ready, willing, able, and continuously seeking full time employment, which might be difficult to do as a student. If you qualify under those conditions you can collect only as long as any other recipient, 26 weeks plus Federal extensions, if there are any.
