No, but the bankruptcy court can work with the US Department of Education, to make the payments more workable with your budget.

Federal student loans cannot be discharged in bankruptcy. Staffords etc. There is a special rule governing them. You may be able to work out a plan with the lender if you call them. Have you gone through credit counseling? They may be able to negotiate a deal you can live with and it will reflect better on your credit report. Bankruptcy should be a last resort.
Private loans may be different though!

Bankruptcy can be a huge headache. I filed a few years ago and it was really a mess..
One site I found extremely useful while I was filing bankruptcy is this one here:

Yup, but you won’t be able to buy a car, a house, or use credit cards for over 7 years.
I definitely wouldn’t recommend it.
