Hilton College is the premiere educational institution in South Africa. It is a member of the Elite Seven and is often regarded by schools such as Eton, Harrow and Wreakin as an equal. These aren't just words coming from me - Time magazine has even uttered those words; a honor not bestowed on any other South African College.
It has the highest endowment by any school in South Africa with a amount exceeding R40'000'000. It has the finest sporting grounds in South Africa and is often host to various prestigious sporting competitions. It is known in South Africa for producing top sportsmen.
By no means is it entirely sport-crazy and it believes in a very holistic approach to education. It does not train Academics but rather creates intelligent well rounded gentleman. It has the best music and academic faculty in South Africa with an outstanding drama center. It is very much involved in the Arts and annually hosts the Hilton-Witness Arts Festival which is the Second largest in the country overall and largest in the country held by any single institution.
The school is a full boys only boarding institution which is unique in South Africa. It creates an environment where all boys can flourish and reach their goals and true potential. The school has a zero tolerance for bullying unlike other schools in South Africa such as Parktown College or Maritzburg college who have recently been exposed by the media. It is unique in regards to being a school where people from diverse backgrounds can congregate on a equal plane.
It is known for producing the most successful old-boys by any institution in South Africa in terms of Business. No school can lay claim to having educated the long-standing recently retired CEO of Microsoft nor the Business tycoon of Patrice Motsepe or Patrick Lamberti.

The main criteria used by Africa Almanac were, in order of importance:
1) The strength and active reach of the old boys and old girls associations and networks of the schools, especially as they act through re-unions, financial donations to the school, and alumni websites and newsletters. The rationale for this was that there is no better way a school's impact on students is better felt than in the degree of loyalty maintained after the students leave the school.
2) The profile of the school, especially in terms of academic excellence and/ or its success in extracurricular activity, particularly sports and the performing arts. This would be obvious for a school to be regarded as successful, especially where it performs well both in academic and extracurricular disciplines.
3) The presence and visibility of the school on the internet, in such areas as the maintenance of a website or some form of user group and chat room. Good schools of the 21st century would, as a matter of course, have made some strides toward acquiring some form of Internet presence.
4) The presence of the school in the news and its tendency to attract news coverage on radio, television, magazine articles, and newspaper news stories and features.
5) The reputation, achievements, and high profile of the school's current and past students. The rationale would be that the crowning achievement of a school --- its very reason for being --- is to produce students and alumni who impact society in a meaningful way.
