Restricted business names such as "University" and "Bank"

Some business names are subject to additional restrictions in order to promote transparency and protect consumers.

These names must be approved by the relevant state agency — for example, the word "University" will be reviewed by the Department of Education. This additional review can lead to longer processing times, so it's a good idea to plan ahead.
