    Our History

    Started in 1991 by Mr. G.A.W.G. Galgamuwa, we are the pioneers in Introducing University Education Overseas to our Sri Lankan Students.

    1. This programme was initiated at a time Sri Lankan society was experiencing a huge uprise by the long time suffered youth during 1987 – 1988 period.
      All Local Universities were closed, Schools were either barricades or had to be closed down as parents didn’t send their children away from home.
    2. Limited seats available in our Universities. Only merely 25000 students out of over 150 000 students who sit for their A/L’s are able to enter the universities in Sri Lanka due to lack of space in Sri Lankan Universities.
    3. To compete with the expensive higher education opportunities available in European countries. We promote our students to do a world recognized Commonwealth State University degree in India wining partial Scholarships through us and then go for Europe, USA, Australia etc…. for Postgraduates.
    4. To educate the youth of Sri Lanka as they are an asset to the country. Providing disciplined graduates, fit to be executives, Providing human resources to the country.

    Thus Mr. Galgamuwa Introduced Commonwealth Government Universities in India to Sri Lankans to study. This was the only pathway out for the middle class who could not afford to send their children to western countries. Notably, Still University Education in India is the most cheapest world recognized university education opportunity available for our Sri Lankan students.

    Thousands benefited from our services for 35 long years since,……
