These are the 33 most eligible students studying at uni this year, according to Tatler

Yes, half of them go to Newcastle


Tatler has just released its annual Little Black Book featuring the 200 most eligible single people in the country. They’re supposedly fit, funny and utterly charming. Rége-Jean Page, Romeo Beckham and Emma Raducanu are in the top 10, so that gives you a general idea of the calibre of people included.

However it’s not just A-List celebrities in the list there are plenty of lords, socialites and even some students, 33 to be precise. For Tatler these 33 are essentially the coolest, smartest and most well connected students in the country.

Many of these students are children of celebrities or members of nobility. They naturally go to the most rah unis – Bristol, Durham and Newcastle – and study history of art or PPE. They’re either models or DJs on the side of their studies and I think I want to be best mates with all of them.

These are the 33 most eligible students this year, according to Tatler:
