% This template can be used in one of two ways:
%
% 1) Content can be added at the end of this file just before the \end{document}
% to use this title page as the starting point for your document.
%
% 2) Alternatively, if you already have a document which you wish to add this
% title page to, copy everything between the \begin{document} and
% \end{document} and paste it where you would like the title page in your
% document. You will then need to insert the packages and document 
% configurations into your document carefully making sure you are not loading
% the same package twice and that there are no clashes.

Best Answer

As noted in the comments \hfill doesn't have a left or right preference

 \noindent aaa \hfill bbb

aaa is pushed to the left and bbb is pushed to the right equally.

Normally though you don't want this at all but something like

\begin{flushright}
flush right\\
text
\end{flushright}


\begin{flushleft}
flush left\\
text
\end{flushleft}
