SL2College is an educational Nonprofit organization formed in 2005. The goal of SL2College is "to help Sri Lankan students with their higher education goals by providing information and guidance as necessary".

SL2College claims they may be the first of its kind in Sri Lanka, and is run by a global community of past and present Sri Lankan graduate students, faculty members, and entrepreneurs residing in Sri Lanka, USA, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Bangladesh, India, Singapore, etc.. SL2College provides a platform for these people to share their own experiences so that Sri Lankan students who plan to pursue higher education can learn about the best local and foreign choices available to them, as well as receive guidance during the application process. At the same time, the organization is educating Sri Lankan students on the higher educational opportunities available within the country as well.
==Early stages of SL2College (History)==
In 2005, an interactive forum called “RoyalCollege2000” was formed on Yahoo! Groups by Nayana Samaranayake, an alumnus of Royal College, Colombo, Sri Lanka. He was pursuing his Masters in Computer Science at Stanford University, USA at the time this started. As Nayana was getting questions from students at Royal College about higher education in the U.S., he realized there was a need to create a platform that gave access to free, unbiased and up-to-date information. “RoyalCollege2000” served this purpose, and started as an informal project by the Royal College alumnus group of 2000. Students from anywhere in Sri Lanka could post their questions on the forum, and those who had experience in the relevant field would then submit an answer.
In 2007, seeing the potential of this group, its name changed from “RoyalCollege2000” to SL2College, as its main purpose was to help Sri Lankan students anywhere reach their higher education goals. Nayana was joined by Nishad Jayasundara and DC Jayasundera, (also students at Stanford University), and Sanjaka Wirasingha, who was studying at Illinois Institute of Technology and was involved with the group since 2005. They took SL2College to another level by forming sl2college.org, SL2College’s own website, in 2008.
