<p>The list was based on online surveys of 2,500 recruiters and 2,200 international chief executives and business managers from top companies in 20 countries, surveyed between mid May and early June 2012. Recruiters were asked to rank universities based on the employability of their graduates. </p>

<p>It makes sense that schools with higher numbers of International students might rank higher in the survey, regardless of their “prestige” and reputation here in the US. It is interesting to see how the rankings match up with the percentage of international students.</p>
