Condeni & its Director of International Admissions Deanna Shine this summer. Dissanayakes were hosted by ONU on August 2, 3 where they were able to have a in-depth experience not only of the school but also of the little town of Ada and the surrounding area. The Lankan visitors were much impressed not only of the high quality of education but the peaceful environment which in their opinion is perfect for Lankan students.

While studying pharmacy, the student is able to enjoy the special privileges that go along with such professional membership.
