Selections to University based on Z-score – District and Merit quotas
After checking your GCE A/L results now your next questions are
- My results are sufficient to select to University course?
- Which university course will I be selected based on these results?
- Can I go to Medicine/ Engineering/ Management/ Law faculty?
When you check your A/L results you will also get Z-score value, Island Rank (IR) for your stream and District Rank (DR). Your University selection will be based on your results, Z score, Island Rank and District Rank for particular stream (Bio Science/ Medicine, Physical Science/ Engineering, Management, Arts or Technology).
UGC Policy on University Admissions
Sri Lankan University admission is based on Z-score values and students are selected based on merit and district quota.
For students seeking admission to Arts courses all Island Merit is the main criterion used for selection. The district basis is not used for selection of students in this category.
Selection to all other streams, namely Commerce, Biological Science, Physical Science, and the newly introduced Engineering Technology Stream, and Bio-systems Technology Stream is based on the following criteria.
- Merit 40%
Up to 40% of the available places of a particular course of study is selected on the order of Z-scores ranked on All Island Merit .
- District Quota 55%
Of the remaining 60%, up to 55% is selected on the district quota system. The district quota system is that, for a given district, in addition to the number selected under the all island merit (up to 40%), additional seats are made available up to the remaining 55%. Accordingly, upto 55% of the available places in each course of study will be allocated to the 25 administrative districts in proportion to the total population of each district; that is on the ratio of the population of the district concerned to the total population of the country.
- Educationally disadvantaged district quota 5%
In addition, there are 16 districts, recognized and classified as educationally disadvantaged districts. The remaining 5% of the total available seats are given to the students of these districts.
The 16 districts categorized as ‘educationally disadvantaged’ are,
1.Nuwara Eliya. 2. Hambantota, 3. Jaffna 4. Kilinochchi 5. Mullathivu, 6. Mullaitivu 7. Vavuniya 8. Trincomalee 9. Batticaloa 10. Ampara, 11. Puttalam, 12. Anuradhapura, 13. Polonnaruwa, 14. Badulla 15. Monaragala, 16. Ratnapura

Sir,I have got AAB in bio stream new syllabus in Galle.My DR 41,IR 408,Z score 2.1305.Can I get selected for medicine?
Sir I’m a new syllabus bio student Colombo 1.98 z score dr 166 ir 587 .i wanna knownif i can get selected to dental peradeniya ..according to 2018 yes because cut off was 1.86 but because of this old syllabus new syllabus thing I’m not sure..if i can know whether I’m getting selected or not i can apply for private university . Because in 2011 the cut off was 2.02 to for Colombo students even for dental .
We cannot predict.
Which is more likely to happen sir?
To take the judgment of the available results (Z score and district) statistics/information of the percentage/number from each district is required early. You should request the following information (assume Colombo district),
1. Approximately the total number of students that will be enrolled for Medicine and Dentistry from Colombo district for the year 2020
2. Percentage allocation for Medicine for Colombo district in terms of first and second attempts.
All affected, especially if you are in Colombo district and wish to do Medicine or Dentistry, have got Z scores between 2.15 – 1.85 should have made this request “Yesterday” and not “Tomorrow” from UGC, else you could wait another couple of months and by then most of your chances (such as overseas placements on scholarships etc) have lapsed.

May I know how many quota to engineering in Vavuniya in 2019
Dear Sir,
I am a student of the 2019 a/l batch new syllabus biology scheme.Now we have got our results.But we can’t get into a decision whether our results are sufficient enough for medical faculty entrance,since there are two rankings as the new syllabus and the old syllabus.Now ugc has given a special notice under that.But it is not clear to me.Sir,Could you please inform me?

May I know IR 350 in new syllabus bio stream. Is it have a chance to all island merit pass(medicine)?
Dear Sew, You are right and there are over 100 candidates today in suspense despite all of you have got good results. In the new syllabus results if you have got z scores in the range of 2.10 – 1.90 and Island Ranks of between 100 – 200, then these results cannot allow you a confident decision about Medical College entry due to the “Old” syllabus candidates.
Now, the UGC notice is too general and lack information for candidates to decide how much of “New” syllabus and “Old” syllabus candidates would be selected for Medicine for each district. The average of First and Second shy candidates for the period 2013 – 17 are not yet calculated by the UGC as at today on a district basis. So you would not know how many from each district would be taken from “New” and “Old” syllabus.
This is a national crisis, the students deserve to know this information “Yesterday” and not “Tomorrow” since some of the overseas private medical college placements for Feb 2020 intake is currently on and students and parents must be given a chance to make a decision. These are information from past statistics and one cannot understand why UGC waited all this time to start working on this information.
So the only thing that you must do is to make an appeal to the UGC by tomorrow requesting the information urgently on the basis of “Right for Information Act”. If you do by tomorrow you help almost another 100 candidates to clarify their plight, now is the time to work as a group like the Second shy candidates did in 2011

I have Abc as result in a/l maths. Distric rank is 274 .will I select for facility managment?
sir trinco medicine quota 16 or 18
Let me know how many merit in colombo district for medicine?
According to above table 137 for merit and 77 district basis in colombo district for medicine
No, not correct. That is for 2016 admission statistics. Colombo district quota for 2018 from 2017 AL results were 268. Now it should be slightly higher
sir, in this year there are 1470 seats for medical faculties. but there was only 1310 last year.according to this… what will happen to district and merit quotas ? how about anuradhapura had 37 district quotas last year … can i expect 39 or 40 this year?
Since there is 160 more merits this time, the merit quota might increase by a small amount for every district (it depends on how well the students in your district have done compared to all students in the country). District quota will definitely increase for every district by small amount (max 5)
For unpriviledged districts university allocation is different. 8 more students will be chosen more than last year for medicine from unpriviledged areas (5% of the increased intake which is 160)
Hope it helps!
