To dial outside the College, students must first dial 8 from residence halls,
apartments, or townhouses.
To dial outside our local area, enter 8 and then:
If using an STC PIN#: area code and telephone number (remember to dial 1
before the area code if calling outside of area code '215'). At the
series of beeps, enter your STC PIN#.
If using a calling card or credit card: dial the 1-800 number on your card
and follow the instructions on placing a phone call.
The University has two telephone exchanges: '951' & '713'. All
telephone numbers in the residence halls and townhouses begin with '951'; all
telephone numbers is Independence Plaza begin with '713'. Even though
there are two exchanges, you do not need to dial the exchange if calling from
on-campus. For example, if you live in Ronson and are calling a student at
Franklin Complex, you only need to dial the extension number (e.g. xxxx).
