Her saying that she doesn't want a boyfriend right now is just an excuse. If I liked a guy enough to want him to be my boyfriend I would never say I don't want a boyfriend right now.
And her getting jealous...it doesn't mean that she likes you. It just means that she likes the attention you give her and that she likes the fact that you like her.
What you need to do is to back off from her a little bit. Go out and make friends with other girls, set up study dates with anyone you want. Don't let her dictate what you do. In time she will either come to you or will realize that she doesn't really like you in that way.
But having said all that, I also notice that you're quite young, and I assume she's about your age. It could be possible that she's scared of getting into a relationship because it would mean certain things which she might not be ready for.
It's as if she doesn't really want you but she also doesn't want you to have anyone else. She needs to make her mind up. Talk to her and tell her that unless you know what she wants, you need to move on and meet other girls.
