‘Sri Lanka Scholar’ offers better future prospects for students

Sri Lanka Scholar is the only site with over 3,000 courses to get comprehensive information on education opportunities within Sri Lanka and better future prospects for local students, said Sri Lanka Scholar CEO, Keerthi Jayasuriya.

He made these remarks at the launch of the Sri Lanka Scholar website -www.srilankascholar.lk recently at Scholar House in Colombo 04

“International Scholar started operations in 1999. During that period, we have provided information for students who were keen to get valuable education information and gave opportunities to students to study overseas, provided career guidance too. We also collaborated with local foreign education partners and brought in many foreign universities to collaborate with local education partners,” he said.

“We brought top Malaysian universities to Sri Lanka for the first time and offered opportunities to Sri Lankan students to study in Malaysia,” he said.

“With the journey of 21 years we have been working with all the leading private institutes as well as leading private schools and over the years International Scholar has been accepted as a highly reputed education provider,” he added.

In 2019 Kumar Sangakkara joined the board as a Director of Sri Lanka Scholar.

“Over 3,000 courses from over 200 Sri Lankan institutions are highlighted in the website and have a lot of resource knowledge on Sri Lankan private sector. In near future the private sector options will be highlighted,” Director of Sri Lanka Scholar Kumar Sangakkara said.

“Students could get information on scholarship programmes that are available, it will also highlight Sri Lankan universities and institutions that have foreign accreditation and transfer options for students to study overseas and this kind of a resource center is such an important tool in deciding students’ future education options, all in Sri Lanka during this COVID-19 pandemic,” he said.
