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

How many medical students are admitted to the University of Colombo?
Sir, im from Kaluthara.
I have 2A and 1B (2A-econ,logic 1B-ict ) in 2020 AL.
My zscore is 1.8827
My DR is 72 and my IR is 1074.
So can I know whether I have the chance to enter Colombo university to law faculty ?
Sir once the recorrecion results are released will it make a drop in the ranks of those who haven’t submitted for recorrction..do our current ranks change
No. students are selected on Z scores. That persons Z score may change and yours remain constant.
Ranks are just an indicator to satisfy students and their teachers.
Thankyou sir….
So when the campus handbook is released saying that the intake for each stream is this much..can we get an idea like we might get in or not based on our district ranks… or should we wait for the cutoffs because regardless of the ranks some recorrection studnts might have higher z scores than what they had…I’m very sorry for disturbing sir..but because I’m a Colombo new syll bio student with 1.98z 166dr I’m on the margin and i have to make a decision soon whether to go abroad or not…
Please wait till Z score cut off marks are released.
