Another group of students enter one of the world's top universities

ANC Education continues to be instrumental in preparing students for Monash University in Australia and Malaysia. In February 2010, 49 students successfully completed either the Monash University Foundation Year or Monash College diploma programmes at ANC in Sri Lanka.

These students have now transitioned to Monash University Australia and Malaysia and are nearing completion of the first semesters in their selected campus. Some of the students are pictured below.
Monash College diplomas and the Monash University Foundation Year bridges the gap between a student's current qualification and the academic qualifications accepted by Monash University and can accelerate entry to a Monash University degree.

The programmes are pathways for students with O/Ls or A/Ls to enter into more than 50 Monash University undergraduate degrees. A member of Australia's prestigious Group of Eight universities, Monash University is recognised for excellence in research and teaching and is ranked among the top 50 universities in the world.

It is Australia's largest university offering courses across eight campuses and ten faculties. Monash graduates are ranked by employers at number 13 in the world. Many Monash degrees offer industry placements during their period of study that provide students advantages in the graduate job market.

Gayara De Silva entered the second year of her Bachelor of Business & Psychology degree at Monash University in Malaysia February this year. "I am glad that after my A/Ls I chose to start my Monash College diploma at ANC in Sri Lanka. Not only did they prepare me academically to face the challenges in university but they also provided me guidance and assistance for my visas.

I'm finding my transition to be less stressful as past students of ANC currently studying here are always there to assist me. Monash University is a vibrant and exciting experience. With its myriad of cultures, ethnicities as well as clubs and societies, this is certainly a diverse and enriching experience. While the work is challenging it is certainly a worthwhile step towards my career and future aspirations."

Shrinika Dharmaratne joined ANC after her O/Ls to follow the Monash University Foundation Year. She completed her Diploma of Business also at ANC, Sri Lanka and in February this year she entered into the 2nd year of the Bachelor of Business (Accounting) degree in Monash University, Melbourne.
"I am glad my parents took the right choice for me as now I am only 18 years old and in 2nd year of university while my friends who opted for local A/Ls are still at school.

I found the 2 years I spent at ANC doing MUFY and the Diploma gave me a really good preparation for University. I learned how to prioritize my time and approach the assessments and examinations thanks to the guidance the lecturers gave me. These are skills that are of immense help to me at university."
