**Long distance calling: Press 9, then dial the number on your calling card, and then the number you wish to dial.
*Resident Student Long Distance/Cellular Services
**The college does not provide long distance services for resident students.
**The college does provide local calling and voicemail services to each resident student which is available upon arrival to campus.
**The college recommends that all resident students purchase calling cards prior to arrival or purchase pre-paid calling cards at the college Bookstore.
**Cell services within the dorms are challenging and difficult; we have installed repeater cells to extend some cell service within the Berkshire Tower and Hoosac Hall resident hall lobby areas.
**More a reliable service, we still recommend using VoIP phone available from the Computer Support Services Help Desk to stay in contact with the college community, family and friends.
**Verizon and AT&T carriers have the best coverage outside the dorms and city area and VZW has committed to expanding cellular coverage at MCLA.
