The survey, conducted by level jobs College startup WayUp (formerly Campus Job), asked the students of college about their dating habits.

Students say that they do not use Tinder – or other meetings applications – to this day. The majority (58%) said that they have never even gone to a date using popular applications.

53% say they use meetings applications to find friends, 27% said that they are seeking a significant other, and the smallest percentage, 20%, said they were looking for a connection.

It is not that the popularity of Amadou on University campuses has declined. The students of the College were among Tinder most active users when the service was launched in 2012. Amadou, who is owned by the Group Match now public (MTCH), says 50% of its members are in the college age group - 18-24.

Sydney Mastrandrea, a sophomore at the University of Miami, said that the fact that students say use the application to find friends is probably not the whole truth.

"I think people use [Tinder] random adapters rather than [find] friends-but they say it is for" friends ", so they are not judged,

By Jason Helfstein, an Internet analyst Oppenheimer & What., it does not matter why the students are using the application, there is the "value" in the Tinder-and Match Group.

Dating industry analyst Mark Brooks agrees.

"It helps people connect with the concept of internet dating," he said, as people begin to look more serious relations "will generally drift towards other services."

Those services, offer paid subscriptions. Tinder, on the other hand, only recently rolled out its Tinder Plus premium services in an attempt to start monetizing your application.

Those who pay for services may not be college students, though.

While the Tinder doesn,t describe the demographic information about its subscribers, online dating analyst said that it,s likely not a hit with the younger set. "There is no money for anyone under 22."
