FAQ

About our Matara office

Do I have to come to Colombo for any part of the application?

expand_more
No — almost everything can be handled at our Matara branch. The only exception is the visa biometric appointment, which is collected at the VFS centre in Colombo (we'll book this for you and tell you exactly what to bring).

Can I visit from Galle or Hambantota?

expand_more
Yes — our Matara office serves the full Southern Province. Most students from Galle, Tangalle, and Hambantota visit on weekends. Book your day and time in advance and we'll have a counsellor ready.

I'm a working professional — can you handle this around my job?

Yes. Book a Saturday-morning slot if weekdays don't work. Most of our Matara Master's applicants are in full-time work — we're used to fitting around your schedule.

What if I want to study somewhere not on your popular list?

We counsel for 18 destinations — UK, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands, France, Switzerland, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Austria, Malta, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, and Dubai. If your target is outside these, we'll be upfront about whether we're the right agency for you.
