How to Strengthen Your Application

Expert tips from Teachmore.lk to maximise your chances of admission

1

Gather certificates early

For Sports Science, collect all achievement certificates from 2021–2026. Get certified copies ready — originals must be produced on test day.

2

Practice the physical test

The fitness evaluation is practical. Begin a structured training regimen at least 4–6 weeks before 23 May 2026 covering stamina, agility, and strength.

3

Pay the Music fee correctly

Write "Aptitude Test – Music" and your NIC on the bank deposit slip. A missing or incorrect reference is the most common reason for rejection.

4

Upload clear scans

For the Music application, upload clear, colour scans of all three documents (NIC, receipt, result sheet). Blurry photos cause delays.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about these USJ degree programmes

Can I apply for both programmes at the same time?
Yes. The B.Sc. Sports Science and B.A. Music are separate programmes under different faculties, and there is no restriction on applying for both. However, each application process, fee, and aptitude test must be completed independently. The test dates currently overlap slightly — check USJ's official portal for scheduling updates.
What if my A/L re-scrutinization results are not out by the deadline?
USJ has officially stated that results after re-scrutinization are accepted for the B.Sc. Sports Science programme. If you are waiting on re-scrutinization results, submit your application as early as possible and contact the Department of Sports Science directly for guidance on how to proceed.
What subjects did I need for A/L to qualify for Sports Science?
There is no specific subject restriction for B.Sc. Sports Science. You only need a minimum Simple Pass ("S" grade) in any three A/L subjects. This makes the programme one of the most accessible at USJ, open to students from all A/L streams — Arts, Science, Commerce, and Technology.
What is the medium of instruction for B.A. Music at USJ?
The B.A. (Hons) Music at USJ, under the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences, typically conducts instruction in Sinhala and English. Given the specializations available (North-Indian Vocals, Violin, Sitar, Tabla), instruction in those disciplines may incorporate subject-specific terminology. Confirm with the FHSS office for the 2025/26 intake details.
Where is the University of Sri Jayewardenepura located?
USJ is located at Gangodawila, Nugegoda, in the Western Province of Sri Lanka. It is easily accessible from Colombo by bus and three-wheeler. Both the Sports Science aptitude test venue and the People's Bank account for the Music application fee are at the Gangodawila campus.
Is there a separate application for A/L students who sat for the exam in private?
USJ's eligibility criteria refer to G.C.E. (A/L) 2025 results and UGC minimum admission requirements. Whether you sat as a school candidate or a private candidate, you are eligible as long as you meet the minimum grade requirements stated. Verify with USJ's admissions office if you have specific concerns about private candidacy status.
