Making a long distance campus-to-campus call from an office telephone
You can dial calls between Indiana University Bloomington and IUPUI directly, using only the last five digits of the phone number (e.g., 5-1234).
For other business campus-to-campus calls, dial as you would any other long-distance number (see above). Calls made from IUB or IUPUI to any other IU campus are free; they will appear on your departmental telephone bill at a rate of $0.00 per minute. All other calls will be billed at the standard long distance rate for your campus.
Making a long distance call from off campus
If you are a faculty or staff member and wish to make a long distance call from off campus, follow the instructions on your IU calling card. For information about obtaining a calling card, see Requesting office telephone service at IUB and IUPUI
