She studied for her Bachelors at the University of Colombo Sri Lanka and went on to complete her PhD at the prestigious University of Oxford as well as attended the University of Cambridge for her post-doctoral studies.

(Vihanga) Wanted to point out two things:
01. At 01:50 mins: I say '1 year after applying for ILR you can apply for PR. ILR is as same as PR in other countries, so it should be after one year you can apply for 'citizenship'.
2. When I talk about visa applications I talk a bit about the Cambridge Oxford system, including the emails from HR which are specific to Oxbridge applications. So, you can only email them to get information only if you are a student/prospect at Oxbridge. Otherwise, you can send an email to your own university HR department or Immigration team and they should be able to provide these information.
Feel free to comment if you have any doubts.
Thank you :)
