Placing international calls
To conduct international University business, use your department long distance calling card.
If the card cannot be located, please have the Office Associate contact the Eagle Help Desk.
Place a long distance call
- All long distance calls on university business are to be placed on the State Telephone System (STS) which provides direct dialing to all states at reduced rates.
- For off campus long distance calls (including 800), dial number 7 + 1 + 10-digit number (includes area code).
- No person-to-person calls can be made on STS, nor can STS calls be made from a non-Centrex phone. It is not allowed to place personal calls on STS.
