<p>I've been trying to send a fax to Barnard College for the past two hours. The deadline for financial aid is today. I use a desktop computer that has a modem and a printer that includes fax. I'm in Phila. Is it because they're off from work now that my faxes aren't getting through? Do I need to add 1 before dialing out to New York?</p>
<p>For any long distance you need to dial 1, so yes.</p>
<p>Try calling the FAX number. You should get a high frequency buzz. That will confirm that the FAX number is up.</p>
