Courses you can do after Advanced Level

Apr 19, 2007 114 Comments by Hiran

1. Firstly, of course you can do A Level again, If you did not work hard for the first time.

2. If you are sure about your exam results, then await for results to enter into Sri Lankan Public University system, which offer excellent degrees at no cost.

3. Then if you want to continue your classical subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Economics etc. you can register into Open University degree programs. Open University degrees are also well recognized and this is a low cost option to expensive foreign degree programs.

4. Or you can follow courses to get Professional Qualifications. Popular options in this category includes Accounting courses (Chartered Accounting, CIMA, ACCA), Computing and information Technology (SLIIT, NIBM, BCS/ ACS/ NCC, Courses offered by Private Institutes), Management, Business and Marketing (NIBM, BSc Business Administration External degree, CIMA, CIM, Courses offered by Private Institutes)

5. If you have money you can go to a country like USA, UK, Australia, Russia, and India and get a foreign degree. Most students follow Medical degree courses in this way. British council offers advice for courses in UK, and Fulbright Scholarship Commission (Close to Ladies College, Colombo) offers advice on courses in USA.

6. There are also several Private Institutes now in Sri Lanka which are affiliated to Foreign Universities, who offer degree (B.Sc. and other) programs in Sri Lanka. With these institutes you can get degrees in various subjects including Management, IT, Health Sciences, Natural, Applied and Pure Sciences.
