The court previously heard that an 18-year-old student had met Mr Hunt on a night out at The Spirit nightclub in the city where they took to the dance floor and drank together in October 2021.
The jury heard that the teenager invited Mr Hunt back to her room but made it plain she did not want to have vaginal sex with him.
The jury found Mr Hunt not guilty on all counts.
