We show that binary forms of degree n less than seven parameterize rings, generalizing a result of Levi on binary cubic forms parameterizing cubic rings, which can be related to results of Bhargava. The question of whether or not a binary form of degree n parameterizes a ring of rank n depends on a symbolic calculation with matrices.
