Does UCC have On-Campus Housing?

Because the college is about five miles from the city of Roseburg, transportation may be a problem if the student does not have a car. Public transportation in Roseburg is limited and most of UCC's students own their vehicle. Limited bus service is also available for Roseburg and outlying towns.
