Don, you can do free calling from point a to point b over the internet for free using either sip or iax.
So lets say you have a campus in LA and in NY, the only cost you will incur making calls between the two (or transiting the network and connecting to a NY number etc) is the cost of your internet bandwidth. However don't let this discourage you, there are any other reasons to move to an IP pabx, and many additional specific reasons for using Asterisk. Can I make a suggestion however in that whilst you could pick all of this information over time a 300 extension project could benefit from someone's expertise. My suggestion is you post your location and then have consultants in your area contact you with proposals.
