Royal College (Sinhala: රාජකීය විද්‍යාලය Rājakīya Vidyālaya) (Tamil: றோயல் கல்லூரி Royal Kalloori) (also referred to as Royal College Colombo,Royal College, Colombo 7, Colombo Royal College, or simply as Royal) is a selective entry boys' school located in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Started as a private school by Rev Joseph Marsh in 1835, it was established as the Colombo Academy by Sir Robert Wilmot-Horton in January 1836, the first government-run secondary school for boys in the island.

Royal College is considered to be the leading public school in Sri Lanka and is often referred to as the "Eton of Sri Lanka". The school was founded in the British public school tradition, having been named the Royal College Colombo in 1881 with royal consent from Queen Victoria, and it was one of the first schools to be designated as a national school by the Sri Lankan government in the 1980s. As a national school it is funded by the government as opposed to the provincial council providing both primary and secondary education. The school was selected as "one of best innovative colleges" in the world by Microsoft in 2009.

Students of Royal College are known as Royalists whilst past pupils are known as Old Royalists.The school has produced many distinguished alumni, among whom are presidents of two countries, a sultan, and three prime ministers.
