Review .COLLEGE eligibility, its difference from .EDU, registry management, premium names, transfers, and reseller options before choosing your education domain.
The .COLLEGE registration policy does not impose a general eligibility restriction on ordinary applicants, so individuals, businesses, organizations, communities, and education services can use the extension subject to registry rules.
