Of course you can get married, as long as you're the legal age to get married. There's nothing really to stop you.
I am currently a college student and I will be married in less than a month, so trust me, it's possible. I know a few other college students that are married, too.
However, being married when in college is ill-advised by a lot of people because it's hard. You've got to care about two people and you have other things to focus on besides just your school work and such. It brings with it a whole new set of worries. But if you're willing to go the extra mile and make it work, it can be rewarding, just as any marriage can be. ^_^

I guess that depends on the place where ayou are staying. In my case, here in the Philippines, when you are 18 until 20 you are required to have your parent's consent to marry. Under that age, you are not allowed to be married at all and if you do get married it is considered as void marriage. Under the 18-20 bracket you are considered voidable marriage if the parents do not consent in your marriage. But that differs from place to place.

I think you can get married. I don't know what the legal age in your country is to get married - but where I live (in the US), you can get married when you're 18. There's no law against getting married just because you're in college. I think someone made that up. I personally would NOT get married (I'm in college right now..) just because I'd rather get my career & finances on track before settling down with anyone and getting married, but that's just from my personal opinion. So unless your country has a law against getting married while you're in college (which I'm guessing it doesn't), you can get married whenever you whether you're in college or not!
