 I think aunt_honesty's advice is valid, but if he's really attractive he's probably not going to notice one more girl smiling at him in the hallway.
If you want to make an impact try finding out what sort of things he's into, if he's in any kind of clubs or something and try getting to know him through that. If it's in social/group sort of situation where you're introduced to him it will be much less nerve-wracking talking to him and getting to know him, and you can find out if he's got a girlfriend ect. Once you've gotten a bit chummy with him you can start to impress him with your awesome personality and sense of humor ect. It would also help if you shared whatever interest it is, then you can show off your passion and knowledge, and be all like... confident and stuff.

 Just smile at him everytime you see him and hold your glance that little second longer than you would do normally. If he doesn't pick up on it at first he soon will do after a few times. I'm sure he'll start smiling back and you can take it from there. I was very shy at your age and missed many an opportunity so you need to be a bit brave and have confidence in yourself. You can do it, I know you can.

 Am afraid there is no other way of getting to know him unless you actually make the effort and talk to him. You just need to start with saying a simple hello whenever you pass him, smile and show him that you have noticed him. Once you are comfortable with that, start asking him how he is and ask him what he is studying. Maybe use the excuse of 'hey do you know what the time is?' to start a conversation with him and take it from there.
