This stretch’s fresh TLD: .Study

You might want to study this domain name.

Yep, there only appears to be one fresh top level domain name launching this stretch as stated by the Calzone.org calendar. That means it gets a little extra attention.

Open Universities Australia Pty Ltd (OAU) launches .Study in general availability on Wednesday.

OUA is a not-for-profit firm committed to the provision of online education, especially in Australia. Originally it wanted to restrict the domain name to a number of partners, but it has since agreed to make it an open TLD that anyone can register.

101Domain has a price of $29.99 per year.

.Study will compete with domains like .academy (19,000 registrations), .education (17,000), .training (16,000), and .college (3,000).
