HPU forms partnership with Scholarships for USA
By Lindsey Garbenis, Hawaii Pacific University, Associate Director

Hawaii Pacific University has formed a great partnership with Scholarships for USA and is interested in increasing the number of Sri Lankan students. Having worked with Scholarships for USA for the past 3 years, I am confident they will help us to achieve this goal.

Principal Mike Chappell welcoming Lindsey Garbenis to Colombo International School during her recent visit to Sri Lanka. Lindsey being very impressed with the academic standards of CIS, offered HPU's highest scholarship to any stellar student applying to HPU.

The last few years I have known and worked with Dissa and Priyanthi, they have exceeded my expectations. They helped to bring in record numbers of very qualified Sri Lankan students over the span of a few years. Their knowledge and professionalism in the education field is not only impressive but fruitful.

I have had the opportunity to travel to Sri Lanka twice and both times they went above and beyond to make my time valuable by coordinating high school visits with top schools in Sri Lanka. They fully understand the US education system and the application process to US universities. This is one great reason why students come to them for assistance in applying to the US.

They have the ability to form lasting and trusting relationships with high school counsellors as well as with students. This gives them the lead in student recruitment to the US.

I have also been able to spend some time with them while they were travelling in the US visiting their partner schools. It is very important to them to visit these schools so that they have the personal experience which they can share with the students. They are able to share their knowledge experience about our campus with students because of the time they have spent in the US.

This also allows us to put our trust in Scholarships for USA. We know that with their dedication, knowledge and trust in our partnership they will be successful in placing many students at Hawaii Pacific University.

HPU is looking forward to a long successful relationship with Scholarships for USA and is honored to be working with them in our mutual goal and have more Sri Lankans study in the US.
