Aaaah, okay, I understand the situation now. Again, don't bring up how hot/cute/attractive you think she is, but the next time you two are walking out of class together, chatting, just ask her if she'd like to go out sometime...easy peasy! Good luck!

I plan on asking at some point. I don't plan on building up the moment over a long period of time, but maybe I should chat her up a bit for a week or two? Thoughts?

This. The whole build-up thing sounds kind of wimpy. I would agree more with testing the waters by trying some chat a couple of times. Like, ask her something relevant to the class: " Have you started your term project yet? What's your topic?" Or "hey, how'd you do on the last quiz?" Or "How do you like the prof for the _____ class? He kind of puts me to sleep", or whatever. See how she reacts. Take it from there.

But...didn't you say earlier you're already friendly with her after class sometimes? So it sounds like you've already broken the ice. In that case, you could go to NoDoubt's plan: when you're chatting with her after class, ask her if she wants to go to lunch with you sometime, or get coffee, or hang out after school.

OP I hear in your practice wording....

"Hey your easy, wanna go out?"

Instead say, "Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out sometime?"
(Have a place and time ready ahead of time but don't let her know)

For me, being in college, the term "hang out" has a completely different meaning than "go out". When I hear "hang out", I don't assume any romantic interest. And, it might also leave her wondering what you have in mind in terms of hanging out. Honestly, I'd just ask her, "would you like to go out with me?" ... direct is best, and leaves nothing for her to wonder about. That's my two cents worth, anyway! Let us know what happens!

It certainly was not.
