16. Conclusions & Recommendations
 According to our research most of the students had
attended to government schools and most of them are
willing to apply for universities. Majority of the students
prefer to apply for local universities.
 Most of the students say that having a degree is the
purpose of education. Because of taking much time in Sri
Lankan universities students have a motivation to migrate
for higher studies. People say that job opportunities for
private vs state universities will depend on their
performances. The most prominent aspect of having
higher education in a private university is because it is
independent.
