Upload them to Google Drive and you can open and view them.

You can export files on your mac and save them as something like .rtf or .doc I think. 

 

I also read somewhere that simply changing a pages file extension to .zip will allow you to open and view it. Also what @elecxonica said

If you have a mac that can open pages files, you should be able to just select File -> Export -> "Document.rtf" Or some other format that can be read by windows. 

 

What kind of a school only uploads files for mac? -.- My college just uses Google Docs. I can even look at my work from my phone (: 

 

There may be something like bootcamp, but for windows. I'm not entirely sure about that though.

So Word and Powerpoint can't read Pages and Keynote files but Pages and Keynote understand Word and Powerpoint just fine. I think the Windows alternatives are actually worse. But just export the file as a word document from pages and all will be well.

Don't delete OS X from the Mac, just make the partition small and use Boot Camp to install Windows. If you took the time to explore and get used to OS X you shouldn't have a problem.

 

There may be something like bootcamp, but for windows. I'm not entirely sure about that though.

Not sure what you mean by that...Boot Camp is there for you to install Windows.

Just open Pages, Keynote or Numbers, then save it as the Microsoft Office equivalents. I'm not sure whether Google Drive will take the iWork file formats and convert them to editable Google Docs equivalents.
