Dating app Tinder is launching Tinder Uni in the UK to enable university students to match with fellow students on campus — as well people studying further afield at nearby unis.

Tinder Uni can only be accessed by students with a uni email address (ending in ac.uk) and users will have to confirm that email address in order to gain access to the feature. This means you won't see profiles from non-students while scrolling on the dating app's feature.
