How Academic Singles works
After the free sign-up you take a personality test. Your answers are compared with those of other members, and your suggestions are based on that. Contact and messages are part of the paid Premium membership.
Safety and data protection
The platform checks profiles and photos and responds to reports from members.
Whatever the platform, a few simple rules protect you: never send money or bank details to someone you only know online, only move to other apps once you trust the person, and meet somewhere public the first time.
Subscription and cancellation
Signing up is free. Contact and messages require a Premium membership with a fixed term; you can see the term and price on Academic Singles before you buy.
Automatic renewal: a Premium membership bought on the website renews automatically for the same length as the initial term unless you cancel in time.
Notice period: at least 14 days before the end of the current term, unless a different deadline was shown when you bought it.
How to cancel: via the cancellation link on the website or with a written statement (for example by email).
Deleting your profile is not enough: a paid subscription does not end just because you delete your profile.
In-app purchases: subscriptions bought through the App Store or Google Play are cancelled there.
