Hult Races up Financial Times Global MBA Rankings

LONDON, January 31, 2011 - Hult International Business School (www.hult.edu/) has climbed in
the Financial Times Global MBA Rankings for the second consecutive year to
reach 61st place, propelled forward after clinching the top slot in
International Experience, vaulting into the top 20 in Careers, and climbing
to 5th place in International Business.

Hult is now ranked 16th by the FT for its ability to advance students'
job prospects. This measures how effectively business schools transform their
graduates' careers, by looking at whether they have secured more senior posts
and are working for larger companies than before they began their courses.

Hult also beat all rivals in International Experience. This measure is
highly valued by MBA students, since it shows how much exposure to global
business issues they will receive during their time at school. The yardstick
is based on hard numbers such as the international make-up of the academic
faculty, and the proportion of graduates who switched countries when
returning to working life.

Stephen Hodges (www.hult.edu/about-hult/president), president of
Hult International Business School, said: "Hult is rapidly entrenching its
position as a leading global institution for educating tomorrow's corporate
leaders. Ambitious people who are looking for an MBA that puts them in the
world's international business elite should seriously consider Hult."

President Hodges said: "Our high ranking in the Careers section shows the
success of Hult's insistence that its MBA program should put business
experience on an equal footing with theoretical teaching. An MBA program is
not about escaping from your career for a year or two - it's about investing
valuable time in accelerating your career."

This two-pronged approach is enshrined in Hult's LEAP method
(www.hult.edu/mba-program/our-program/LEAP): Learning from classes,
Experience through site visits and a broad range of distinguished speakers on
campus, and Action Projects - where a company sets a team of students the
exacting task of solving a current problem through six weeks of
brainstorming.

Hult's excellent record in improving students' careers is based on a
highly imaginative approach. Hult advisers work hard to find jobs for
graduates at ground-breaking non-profits as well as among Fortune 500
companies.

President Hodges added: "Our first place in International Experience
shows that wherever you come from, after you graduate from Hult the world is
your oyster. Our five campuses span developed and emerging markets across
three continents - allowing students to build contacts across the world."

MBA students can study at three of Hult's five campuses, in Boston, San
Francisco
, London, Dubai and Shanghai.
