-

Mark Schroeder Associate Director of The University of Toledo (www.utoledo.edu) Ohio USA recently visited Asian Internatio­nal School (AIS) Colombo to meet with its Director and the counsellor for US universiti­es Goolbai Gunasekara. AIS, during the recent years, has been working closely with Scholarshi­ps for USA (Pvt) Ltd (www.scholarshi­psforusa.com) to secure early admissions with excellent scholarshi­ps, generous credit transfers ample part-time work and paid internship­s providing its students with hands on work experience preparing them for global positions. SUSA, mostly due to its extensive annual summer visits across US, have teamed up with a group of hand picked universiti­es and colleges from Montana to Hawai’i and from North Dakota to Tennessee who have agreed to open its doors to deserving Lankans awarding each with top education even middle class Lankan parents could afford.

The University of Toledo combines everything Lankan parents would look for; one of the few universiti­es in US to have its own medical and law schools, UToledo offers over 250 degrees from bachelors to doctoral at a most affordable cost; It offers generous credit transfers for AS and A-Ls; excellent scholarshi­ps; history dating back to 1872; situated in an area with a considerab­ly lower cost of living (compared to many other parts of US); student to faculty ratio of 19:1. Ms.Gunasekara, well versed in US education felt that UToledo would be an exciting destinatio­n to AIS students.
