INTERNATIONAL CALLS
FROM A CAMPUS PHONE

FROM A CELL PHONE
Dial 011 (to reach someone outside the U.S.) + country code + city code + local phone number.
TROUBLESHOOTING
- Numbers from abroad may include a zero as the first number within the country code. You generally need to drop the leading zero.
- In other cases, you may need to add numbers. for example, in Mexico City the local number is 7 digits long. When calling that number from outside the of Mexico, add an additional ‘5’ in front of the local number to make that number 8 digits long.
