The first ‘Commercial Bank of Ceylon PLC Gold Medal for the Best Performance in Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting’ is to be presented at this year’s convocation, to a student of the 2014 batch who obtains a First Class and gains the highest Grade Point Average (GPA).
The Gold medal will thereafter be awarded annually, and will be jointly awarded if more than one student is eligible, the Bank said.
