Your school, at its own address. You will create your school on HTT Schools: its name, its own web address, and its look.

> **Note:** You need an HTT account for this. If you do not have one yet, the HTT Tech trainings show you how to create it.

## Step by step

### 3. Country and cost

Choose your country. It sets your currency, and shows what opening the school costs: a one-off commitment fee — and the same small fee, once, for each person who joins.

### 4. Your address

Your address is made from the name — change it if you like. It is yours across the whole HTT ecosystem, so choose carefully.

### 5. The look

Add your crest if you have it, choose your two colours, and pick a website template. All of it can be changed later.

*Step 6: Create school*

### 7. Under review

Your address is reserved, and nobody else can take it. HTT checks every new school before it goes live — usually within one working day. When it is approved, a notice arrives in your HTT Auth inbox, and your console opens.
