You and your roommates may want to purchase one together.

Ladies: The college supplies transportation to all resident ladies to and from the following places: church, shopping, the library, school activities, and soul-winning ministries. A lady resident who will work an off-campus job may have a need for a car if she were to work at a place to which the college does not already supply transportation. Of course, many ladies form car pools to and from worksites.
Men: A car is permitted; however, it is not recommended unless finances permit. The college provides transportation to and from church, and many men form car pools to and from their work and ministries.
