Yash Nanayakkara has achieved a major international academic milestone by securing a highly competitive 30% scholarship for the prestigious Economics residential summer course organized by the Immerse Education Institute in England.

Confronted with a record-breaking pool of over 10,000 international submissions, Yash’s rigorous economic essay placed him within an elite tier of just 6% of applicants worldwide chosen to receive a partial scholarship of this magnitude.

We congratulate Yash on his tremendous achievement and wish him the best of luck!
