swot

Someone already posted below, but you can find a pretty good list at https://github.com/leereilly/swot/tree/master/lib/domains or on the Jetbrains fork at https://github.com/JetBrains/swot/tree/master/lib/domains

I remember coming across someone (I think it was JetBrains, but don't quote me on that) using https://github.com/leereilly/swot

Speaking of which; https://github.com/leereilly/swot Swot is a community-driven or crowdsourced library for verifying that domain names and email addresses are tied to a legitimate university of college - more specifically, an academic institution providing higher education in tertiary, quaternary or any other kind of post-secondary education in any country in the world.

Not a standard but https://github.com/leereilly/swot comes to mind.

For all the people wondering about what constitutes a "school-issued email address" (.edu, .net, .ch, .ac.il, &c), we use the swot gem (https://github.com/leereilly/swot) to automatically identify domains belonging to academic institutions. You can see for yourself what's allowed, even send Pull Requests to include your school if it's missing. Anything that's not automatically accepted still goes through a manual review process. And as others (johndbritton, jbarnette, jeremymcanally) have pointed out, you can contact us at support@github.com if you're having any trouble.
