Dinuka Perera of Lyceum International, Panadura was recently placed at the University of Cincinnati for a Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering with its top global scholarship by Scholarships for USA (Pvt.) Ltd. (www.scholarshipsforusa.com).

University of Cincinnati is among the top 25 public research universities in the nation and among the top 200 research universities globally. As pioneers of cooperative education (paid hands on work experience in industry – currently ranked 4th in the nation) giving its graduates a huge advantage of securing global employment opportunities immediately upon graduation, UC has become increasingly popular in Sri Lanka ever since it was introduced to the island by Scholarships for USA (Pvt.) Ltd. in ‘07. The other accolades it has won places UC in the top tier of ‘Best National Universities’, among the nation’s best institutions for undergraduate education and among the world’s most beautiful campuses.

Lyceum International group of schools consist of six branches with a student population of nearly 15,000 and works closely with SUSA getting the most attractive and quickest admission offers from US universities for its brightest graduates.

SUSA, since its inception in ‘01 has been passionately committed to promote US higher education to the furthest corners of the island. Its mission has been to make US education increasingly affordable and accessible to the largest segment of Lankan youth. Its commitments have also resulted in attracting schools such as UC to SL and facilitating many institutional collaborations making 2+2 transfers possible. UC has two of those running in SL – with the Institute of Chemistry and SLIIT.

Asked about the guidance received from SUSA this is what Dinuka had to say: one of the best things that happened to me; very professional and trustworthy; amazing speed; very reasonable fees.
