More details to this question:
My current employer hired me full time knowing I was in school. They worked around my schedule while I was in school. Then I was told by my employer that I needed to decide what I want to do before going into a practicum semester. I proposed to them to work part-time until the end of semester or go a leave. Their response was no. I had no other option then to resign.

Unemployment will decide if you'll be awarded benefits, but you should definitely apply and then explain your circumstances. It sounds like a constructive discharge rather than a resignation. Good luck.
