Dedicated gateway to Australian universities set up by Ceylinco Planet

OPENING: A gateway to Australian universities has opened up for Sri Lankan students with the establishment of a new operational centre in Colombo by Ceylinco Planet in a building dedicated exclusively to facilitate student migration to Australia.

The new office, which was inaugurated last week, is located at 315, R. A. De Mel Mawatha, Colombo 3. The opening was attended by Australian High Commissioner Dr. Gregory French, senior management, university representatives, principals of leading high schools and other officials.

The expansion to the new stand alone four storey building will help Ceylinco Planet to increase its competitiveness in the areas of providing students with highly professional and reliable educational and career counselling services.

The new office has dedicated rooms for counselling, processing of visa applications and university admissions, IELTS classes and an auditorium for seminars. It also has a resource centre at which students can browse and research the many universities in Australia free of charge.

A staff of 12 dedicated employees ensures that students are provided with in-depth and accurate information about studying abroad.

Ceylinco Education Group Deputy Chairman Mr. Jagath Alwis said: "There is a big demand among Sri Lankan students to study in Australian universities. However, we found that the facilities available were not adequate. We aim to fill this void through Ceylinco Planet."

Ceylinco Planet seeks to facilitate the requirements of students and their parents in finding the perfect university with the appropriate degrees at the right price in minimum time.

The company represents more than 40 top Universities and Institutions in Australia and offers students the opportunity to choose from some of the best universities in the world, such as Monash University, University of Western Australia, University of Queensland, University of Adelaide, Deakin University, Swinburne University, Latrobe University, RMIT University, Victoria University, Curtin University and Edith Cowan University.
