Departments and organizations with an existing website can request a university-hosted URL.
Because the university’s website is a platform for communicating with external stakeholders, such as prospective students, researchers, and faculty, about university activities, requests for top-level utk.edu and tennessee.edu URLs are subject to approval.
Top-level URLs are typically reserved for the following groups:
- Colleges, schools, and major administrative divisions
- Academic Departments, Academic Support Units, Administrative Divisions, Administrative Support Units, Major Research Initiatives
Examples of top-level URLs include admissions.utk.edu, cci.utk.edu, and payroll.tennessee.edu.
If your organization needs a non-UT URL, such as .org, .net, and .com, OIT can consult with you about securing one of these URLs.
