Voicemail System

Setting up your voicemail and access information

Seton Hall Law School utilizes a voicemail system separate and distinct from our in-house NEC phone system.  Located at the main campus, our voicemail server offers advanced features and access from any phone in the law school building and beyond. For a voicemail tutorial, click here.

However, to use this system, you must first setup your mailbox and forward your "busy" and "no answer" calls to your account. Please follow the steps below to complete this process:
