Student Loans! Help!?!?

Ok so I'm wondering if it is possible to get a private student loan to help me buy a car for when I go to college Fall 2009. I'm accepted and have been awarded just about enough financial aid to cover the costs fully. The private student loan would be used to cover the rest of the school costs and I'd like to use a chunk of it to buy a car. Does anyone know if this possible?

It would be extremely foolish. Use public transport, and rent a taxi if you really need to get somewhere. It'll be cheaper in the long run. JMHO!
