Most Widely-Used World University Ranking now on iPhone

QS World University Rankings now an iPhone App.

LONDON, May 31, 2010 - The world's most popular university ranking (viewed over 18million times
on www.topuniversities.com) is now even more accessible to its diverse
users, thanks to an innovative new iPhone App. The QS World University
Rankings App, designed for students, parents and ranking fanatics, allows
users to conduct their own study destination research by providing global,
regional and subject-based rankings as well as profiles and contact details
of 500 of the world's top universities.

QS World University Rankings can be viewed and interpreted in three
different ways - globally, regionally and by subject area. Users who have
reviewed the App said it is, "Very thorough and organised", and also "Great
to be able to see info about the universities I'm interested in all in one
place".

Marcos Angelides, Online Marketing Manager at QS and co-creator of the
App said, "Every year, QS surveys over 40,000 undergraduate and Masters
applicants who register on topuniversities.com to meet universities
face-to-face. Results revealed that they want to discuss university choices
with their friends whilst on the move."

The iPhone App is the first of a series of initiatives to be launched by
QS in the lead up to the release of the 2010 QS World University Rankings; it
is free to download on iTunes. A demo of the App can be viewed here
