About .ac
Buyers can choose a term from 1 to 10 years when registering a .ac name. Comparing offers for the same term makes the initial commitment easier to assess. Eligibility does not narrow the choice: anyone can register, with no special requirements.
For an education project, the academic association is a naming cue rather than a formal designation. The extension is not reserved for academic institutions.
