'''.College''' is a proposed [[TLD]] to the [[New gTLD Program]] of [[ICANN]]. Although there were originally two applicants, the only current applicant is [[XYZ.COM LLC]]; the contention set was settled via a [[gTLD auctions|private auction]] facilitated by [[Innovative Auctions]].  XYZ.COM's goal is for .College to be an all-inclusive, open gTLD, providing recourse to organizations previously denied access to educational or communal identification within the online space.
