Answers:
Unfortunately your height is determined by genetics. At 21 it is likely you will have stopped growing.
You could try yoga, its aim is to correct posture and lengthen your muscles and back. It won't actually make you taller but if it makes you stand up straighter you may appear taller and carry yourself better. You may think you are taller (approx 5 to 10 pound per session and local gyms may have yoga classes, also I know tonnes of guys like me that do yoga, if you have an ego with it say you are doing it to become a better surfer yoga is huge in the surfing world).
Another trick is clothing, some types of clothing make people look slimmer so I'm sure some types will make people look taller. I know nothing about clothing so can't advise any further on that option.
I'm sorry all the answers are negative and not what your looking for.Health Question & Answer

you may be able to create the illusion that you are taller.
yes, wearing vertical stripes may help
you could put a wedge in your shoes to boost you a few inches.
i dont really think you are all that short, so a few tricks might help you feel a lot better.

try paying more attention to your posture, stand and sit straight up, this can make you seem much taller!

pick clothes that fit well, and being overweight makes you seem stout kind of, so if you would like to you could try losing weight, unless you are thin, its your call.

about.com has this to say:
I know that you probably won't like this tip, but for just an hour, watch a woman's soap opera and take notes. The best dressed actors, (especially if they are short) will dress in one color, complete with a thin belt. One color from top to bottom will give the impression of length... even if it's not there.

WikiHow also suggests wearing one color, and to choose out fits that dont chop you up into different pieces, ex thin belts the same color as your trousers.

Pick vertical detailing: thin stripes, visible seams, interesting buttons and contrasting ties. Health Question & Answer
