A good site for Hokies, but not very good for everyone else.

Hokie Singles is a dating site that focuses on bringing the single students, staff, alumni and friends of Virginia Tech University together. The site has a nice clean, easy to use design that makes navigating it very simple. This is a site that is very location specific meaning that about 95% of the members of the site are located in the area of the college. So if you are not in that area then chances are the site really won't be of much use to you.

If you do want to explore the site signing up for a free membership is fast and easy. Your profile can have a lot of detail in it, but they let you skip most of that stuff during the sign up process. You can go back in and fill that in later if you want. I like that because this way if I don't plan to use the site I didn't spend a lot of time on a profile I will never use. The site offers you two different types of search. The basic search lets you search people by age range and distance from you while the advanced search, called Smart Match, uses the details from your profile to match you with other people. You can search the site and look at other people's profiles for free, but if you want to contact someone directly you will have to get a paid membership.

Sadly, the search options are the only real features this site offers. While many dating sites these days offer chat and instant message options this site does not and that was a little bit of a let down.

When I assigned the score to this site I did it based on how the site would work for most people which is to say that it is too localized to be of much use to the general population. It also lacks in features no matter where you might live. That said, if you live near the school or are affiliated with the school it does have a nice amount of members all concentrated in that area so for someone like you the site is worth taking a look at.
