Temple Ranked Number 1 On Sugar Baby-Sugar Daddy Pairing Website For New Sign Ups

Temple University has landed the top spot on a rather peculiar list of colleges. It has been ranked the top school for new "sugar babies" who seek "sugar daddies" to help pay for college tuition.

The sugar baby-sugar daddy pairing website Seeking Arrangement provided figures showing Temple was the highest growing school for sugar babies seeking sugar daddies.

In 2016, the site reports 296 new users at Temple signed up to seek financial help with their education. It reports the total number of sugar babies in 2017 is 1,068.

"Becoming a Sugar Baby allows a student to avoid becoming another statistic," the site says.

According to the site, there are 3.24 million people in the US that are involved in sugar daddy and sugar mommy relationships. That includes the benefactor and the recipients.

While Temple earned the top spot for growing numbers of sugar babies, the rest of the top 10 schools are NYU, Arizona State, Georgia State, Texas State, Florida International University, Virginia Commonwealth University, Kent State University, University of Alabama, and University of Central Florida.

Seeking Arrangement calls the arrangements it cultivates "Mutually Beneficial Relationships."

"An arrangement is where people are direct with one another and stop wasting time," the website says. "It allows people to immediately define what they need and want in a relationship. Our profiles allow members to effortlessly state their expectations."

Seeking Arrangement founder Brandon Wade says on the website that "romantic relationships can only work if two people agree on what they expect, and what they can give and receive from each other" and compares that to business relationships.
