If they stop giving you hours, that is the same as laying you off and you would be eligle for unemployment.  Being seasonal or not makes no difference.  If you are only working 3 hours a day,  don't expect a very bigunemployment check.

HOWEVER, to collect unem-ployment you have to be available for work.  If you are full time student:  no unemployment.
