    About .study domain

    .study is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) delegated as part of ICANN's New gTLD Program. It is operated by OPEN UNIVERSITIES AUSTRALIA PTY LTD, a not-for-profit company, and was delegated to the root zone on 25 February 2015. The registry's stated purpose is to create an authoritative Internet space for its own controlled use, primarily for the promotion of its online education services. It is a closed or restricted gTLD, not intended for open public registration.

    Who can register .study domain

    Domain name registrations in the .study gTLD are not available to the general public. According to the registry's application, only OPEN UNIVERSITIES AUSTRALIA PTY LTD (OUA) itself is eligible to register domain names at this stage. There is no public registration process, and the registry does not offer domains through commercial registrars to individuals or other organizations. The TLD is operated as a brand or single-entity registry.

    How to register .study domain

    This TLD is not allocated through commercial registrars or a public registration process. Domain names are issued solely by the registry operator, OPEN UNIVERSITIES AUSTRALIA PTY LTD, for its own use. The allocation process is internal to the organization, aligning with its goal of creating a controlled, authoritative namespace for its online education initiatives. As a closed gTLD, there is no standard checkout flow for external registrants.

    Typical uses of .study domain

    The .study extension is used exclusively by its registry operator, Open Universities Australia, to promote and communicate its open online studies and educational services. It serves as a dedicated digital space for the organization's brand, providing a focused platform for its courses and student engagement. This allows the registry to assure Internet users of brand authenticity within the online education sector, differentiating its official resources from other generic education-related domains.

    Tips for registering .study domain

    • Registration is not available to the public; all domains are registered and used by the registry operator itself.
    • As a closed gTLD, standard policies like WHOIS privacy or public transfer procedures do not apply to external registrants.
    • The registry's operation is governed by its commitments to ICANN, including rights abuse prevention measures mandated for all new gTLDs.

    Who can register a .study domain?

    Registration is strictly limited to the registry operator, OPEN UNIVERSITIES AUSTRALIA PTY LTD. The TLD was established as a brand TLD for the organization's exclusive use, meaning individuals, educational institutions, or other businesses cannot register a .study domain. There is no public eligibility criteria or verification process, as the namespace is entirely controlled internally by the operator.

    Can I transfer a .study domain between registrars?

    Inter-registrar transfers are not applicable for the .study extension. Since domain names are not sold to external registrants, there is no standard transfer policy between registrars. Any changes in the management or ownership of domain names within the TLD would be handled internally by the registry operator as part of its own administrative processes.

    Can I purchase a premium .study domain name?

    No, premium domain names are not offered for sale. The entire .study namespace is reserved for the registry's own use, so there is no secondary market or premium sales channel. All domains are registered to and used by OPEN UNIVERSITIES AUSTRALIA PTY LTD to support its online education mission.

    What dispute policies apply to .study domains?

    As a restricted gTLD, standard public dispute policies like the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP) would still apply in theory to any registered domain. However, because the registry is the sole registrant, disputes are highly unlikely. The registry's application committed to implementing ICANN-mandated rights protection mechanisms to prevent abuse within its controlled environment.
