Can I transfer files using SSH?
Use the PSCP tool from the putty download page:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
PSCP is the putty version of scp which is a cp (copy) over ssh command.
PSCP needs to be installed on your windows computer (just downloaded, really, there is no install process. In the Packaged Files section, pscp.exe is already included). Nothing needs to be installed on the school's servers. PSCP and scp both use ssh to connect.

To download a file from a remote server to your computer:
or
or
With a lone dot at the end there. This will download the specified file to the current directory.
Since the comment is too far down, I should also point out here that WinSCP exists providing a GUI for all this, if that's of interest: http://winscp.net/eng/download.php
