Why Study in Sri Lanka?
Obtain an internationally recognized university degree offered from a western country for a fraction of it's cost by doing it in Sri Lanka.
Most of the private higher education institutes offer undergraduate and postgraduate degree programs from universities in foreign countries such as UK, US and Australia. These degree programs are offered in franchise mode, where quality assurance is carried out by the awarding university. Therefore, students obtain the same degree certificate as the students at the awarding parent university. One of the biggest advantages is that students can obtain the same degree at a fraction of the cost of actually attending the parent university in UK or Australia. Usually the cost of studying in Sri Lanka is one tenth (1/10) of the cost of studying in UK, to get exactly the same degree offered by the same UK university.
