If your institution is eligible, you will need to provide some important information. You will not be able to request a domain name unless you provide the following information.
Domain Name - The name that you request must reasonably represent the Registrant and not be generic. Review .edu domain name policies.
Institution Name – This is the legal name and address of the eligible institution requesting the domain name. Review .edu eligibility requirements.

Technical Contact – This is the name of a person or group who is responsible for the technical details of the domain name.
Billing Contact – This is the name of a person or group who is responsible for billing on the domain name.
Primary and Secondary Domain Name Servers – These name servers should be set up to properly respond to queries for the domain. The name servers must be publicly accessible (have public IP addresses). Some institutions house their own domain name servers while others use an Internet service provider for this function. Check with your ISP before you start if you are unsure.

If you are not located within the United States but believe you meet one of the other qualifications as a US institution AND are institutionally accredited by one of the Nationally Recognized Accrediting Agencies we recognize, please contact edu@educause.edu.
