Admission to universities is still within the policy of free education and is extremely competitive.

Examination, only 24,198 students were selected (43.8%). However, with your knowledge and
talent, there is no limit for your achievements.
I wish you every success in your university education and hope that qualifications obtained from the

COURSE PREFERENCES
9.1
Every candidate should clearly indicate in the application for admission the courses of study to
which he/she seeks entry. Candidates will not be considered for the courses of study to
which they have not marked a preference. They can apply for any number of courses if they
are qualified to be considered for those courses. If a candidate wishes to be considered for two or
more courses of study, such courses of study should be indicated in descending order of preference.
No candidates will be permitted to change the order of preference after one month of the
closing date of applications.
9.2
A complete list of the courses of study available is set out in Annex I. Students should be guided by
this Annex when selecting the courses they wish to follow. However, when indicating the courses of
study according to their order of preference, candidates should clearly understand that initially
they would be selected only for the courses of study mentioned under 7.2 and not for a
particular university or a particular subject combination of a university stated in Annex 1.
9.3
When a candidate has indicated preferences for two or more courses of study, he/she will, in the
first instance, be considered for admission to the course to which he/she has given first preference.
If the candidate is not selected for that course, he/she will be considered for the next course of study
he/she has given second preference in the application. This process is illustrated by the following
example:
Assume that a candidate has indicated in his application ten courses of study in the following order
of preference;
1.
Management
2.
Public Management (Special)
3.
Commerce
4.
Estate Management & Valuation
5.
Management Studies (TV)
6.
Business Information Systems (Special)
7.
Law
8.
Arts (SAB)
9.
Architecture
10. Quantity Surveying
This candidate will be considered first for Management, then for Public Management (Special),
next for Commerce and so on according to his/her order of preference until he/she is selected or is
found not to qualify for any of these ten courses of study. Let us presume that his/her Z score,
which is inadequate for both Management and Public Management (Special) qualifies him/her for
admission to Commerce, he/she will then be selected for Commerce and will not be considered for
any of the preferences given in 4 to 10 above.
9.4
Those who wish to change the course preference order should do so in writing according to the
format appended below and send under registered cover to reach the Additional Secretary / Academic
Affairs & University Admissions, University Grants Commission, No 20, Ward Place, Colombo 7,
within a month of the closing date of applications. The signature you place here should be same
as the signature you have already placed in your University Application Form. Requests for change
the order of course preference through fax or e-mail shall not be accepted.

SPECIAL ADMISSION
In admitting students to universities, it is a common practice in many countries to reserve a few
places for special categories of students such as those who have excelled in sports, arts and culture;
blind and differently abled; personnel of armed forces; teachers; and foreign students. Only a very
few number is admitted on the special grounds specified above. The special categories of candidates
who qualify for special admission to universities in Sri Lanka are described below ; and selection of
students for special admission will be made in accordance with the criteria specified in section 3.2.1
of this Handbook.
(a) Blind and Differently Abled Candidates:
The UGC may at the request of the universities concerned, decide to admit a limited number of
blind students (who sat the 2013 G.C.E (A/L) Examination using the Braille system) to courses in
Arts and differently abled students (who are medically certified as disabled) to courses in Arts,
Commerce, Biological Science and Physical Science. It is important to note that, only candidates
who satisfy the minimum requirements for university admission (set out in Section 3.2.2 above) and
the appropriate subject pre-requisites (set out in Section 8) for the relevant course of study will be
considered under this special provision. Applicants are required to submit Medical Certificates
acceptable to the UGC in proof of their physical disability. For the purpose of this section, physical
disability shall mean a permanent physical impairment, which has affected normal life.
Note

scouting and cadetting, social work and other extra curricular activities between 01.08.2010
to 31.07.2013 but have failed to gain admission under the normal intake because of the
shortfall of a few marks. In order to be eligible for admission under this provision candidates
should have satisfied the minimum requirements specified in Section 3.2.2 and subject prerequisites for admission to a particular course of study specified in Section 8 of this Handbook.
Candidates who are within a Z score of 0.2000 of the cut-off-point applicable to

with regard to their achievements at national / international level when they are summoned
for an interview at the UGC Secretariat. Marks will be awarded for their achievements at

the interview in accordance with a marking scheme approved by the UGC. Final selection
will be made in order of the marks that applicants obtain at this evaluation, depending on the
places available under this special provision. For selection of candidates, marks scored at
this evaluation will not be added to the Z-score marks obtained by applicants at the
G.C.E (A/L) Examination.

20
ADDITIONAL INTAKE
For some subjects in the Arts streams, an adequate number of students may not be selected on
the basis of the admission criteria specified in section 3 above. As a result, some Faculties and
Departments could be in a position to admit a larger number than the number selected under
the normal admission criteria. In such circumstances, the UGC may, at the request of the
Universities concerned, decide to admit a limited number of additional students for selected
subject areas. This is an additional intake aimed at making optimal use of the human and
physical resources available at Universities, as well as meeting skilled manpower needs of the
society. Since candidates are selected out of those who have already applied for the normal
intake, no separate application need to be made for selection under the Additional
Intake. In order to be eligible for admission under this provision every candidate should have
necessarily obtained at least a C Grade for the subject (in the case of English Language
minimum requirement is a S Grade) for which he/she would be considered. Successful
candidates should study this subject area through out the duration of his/her university education.
If the candidate intends to obtain a specialized degree he/she should select the same subject
due to which he/she was selected under this special provision. The selection under this provision
will be made considering the order of Z-Scores of new syllabus & old syllabus separately on
an all island merit basis.
