ANC Campus announced the launch of a formal articulation partnership with Adelaide University at Cinnamon Lakeside, Colombo recently, creating a clear progression pathway for Sri Lankan students seeking an Australian university degree.
Through this pathway, students can begin their university-level studies at ANC Campus in Sri Lanka before progressing to Adelaide University in Australia, subject to the relevant academic, English language, and entry requirements. By completing the first year through ANC’s Australian Diploma pathway in Sri Lanka, students can significantly reduce the overall cost of their Australian education journey, with estimated first-year savings of up to Rs. 13 million when tuition and living expenses are considered.
The launch was attended by representatives of ANC Campus, Adelaide University, and the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), alongside members of the media, students, parents, and invited guests. Austrade’s presence highlighted the continued importance of Australia-Sri Lanka education links.
Adelaide University is Australia’s new major university, established through the merger of the University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia. The university is ranked 82nd globally in the QS World University Rankings 2026.
Through this partnership, students who complete ANC’s Australian Diploma program will be eligible to enter the second year of selected Adelaide University degree programs. The pathway covers selected programs in Business, Engineering, Information Technology, and Science. Students may also be eligible for merit-based scholarships, subject to Adelaide University’s academic criteria. ANC Campus confirmed that this is the first formal Australian Diploma articulation pathway established between a Sri Lankan institution and Adelaide University.
Chief Executive Officer of ANC Campus Dayan D. L. Fernando said the partnership gives Sri Lankan students a credible and well-supported route into Australian higher education.
“For over two decades, ANC has worked with international university partners to help Sri Lankan students begin their global education journey with the right academic preparation and guidance. This partnership with Adelaide University gives students a clearer route to an Australian degree and gives parents greater confidence in the pathway their children are choosing,” he said.
Fernando added that international education is one of the most important decisions a family makes, and proper guidance is essential.
“At ANC, our responsibility is to guide students correctly. We must help them understand the pathway, the requirements, the destination, and the opportunities ahead. ANC prepares students for the highest likelihood of success.”
