So to keep pace with FSC&#8217;s growth, the College has acquired a large block of continuous numbers in the new <span style=\"color: black\">Suffolk County <\/span>934 area code<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;color: black\">The new 934 area code is now active and delivering calls to your phone.

The 934 area code will replace the current 631 <span style=\"color: black\">for the campus<\/span><span style=\"color: red\">. <\/span>All <span style=\"color: black\">campus<\/span> phone numbers (including the current 794 exchanges) will become <span style=\"color: black\">934-420-XXXX.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>For 420 exchanges, the last <span style=\"color: black\">four<\/span> digits of your extension remain the same.<\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\"> <span style=\"color: black\">For 794 exchanges, the <b>6<\/b> of the extension will change to <b>5<\/b>, and the last three digits will remain the same<\/span><span style=\"color: #70ad47\">. <\/span><span style=\"color: black\">For those whose extensions change<\/span><span style=\"color: #1f4e79\">, <\/span><span style=\"color: black\">callers will receive a message explaining the new number, and be directed to dial the last four numbers to be transferred to their destination. Those who receive new extensions will be contacted by Information Technology and advised of their new number. \u00a0All callers, whether from Nassau, Suffolk, or elsewhere, will call 934-420-XXXX to reach you. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\"><span style=\"color: black\">For example:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt;color: black\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\"><strong>Current Number<\/strong> \u00a0 <strong>New Number<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\">631-420-2XXX\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <b>934<\/b>-420-2XXX<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\">631-794-6XXX\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <b>934-420-5<\/b>XXX<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\">Anyone continuing to use the 631 area code will receive a recorded message that the area code has changed. This reminder will continue into the summer months. A limited number of student services main lines (such as Campus Main, Admissions, UPD) will continue with both numbers. All others eventually will be retired.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"xmsonormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt\">Please inform your off-campus constituencies, business associates, and family members to use the 934 area code beginning 1\/<span style=\"color: black\">2\/20.<\/span> Reminders will take place through December and January in the <i>Campus Times<\/i>, our entrance signs, and other venues used for messages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also, all print materials, business cards, publications, correspondence, and e-mail signatures should reflect the new 934 area code moving forward.
