My school's it department blocks all ports other than 80 and ssl's port (can't remember off top of my head) which means I can use any coin clients at school.
I have asked them to unblock bitcoin and dogecoin's (I know) ports, but they won't do it because "it doesn't relate to academics" despite the fact that I am taking a comp sci class that I am making a bitcoin related website in.
How can I get around this?

Do you really need to do Bitcoin transactions in school? You could use your cell phone with a data plan, or leave BTC until school ends.

I think that TOR can easily do the bypass job

Tor is a good option. The other question is regarding "I am making a bitcoin related website in" - do you need bitcoind for a web site? It just depends on what the site does of course, but Tor is probably the best option and use the bootstrap.dat to sync faster vs doing it over Tor.

You could open a port forward or a dynamic proxy (socks5) via ssh. But you will need a ssh server somewhere listening on port 80.

How about a network that filters based on protocol? I've had times where only HTTP (and HTTPS) traffic was allowed, and neither Tor nor SSH to a server running on port 443 worked. I also tried ICMP tunneling and OpenVPN, but to no avail. Usually I just use my phone's connection in those situations, but it can get annoying at times.

If they do DPI on the router you will have a hard time tricking that. But afaik tor can do this. See here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/pluggable-transports.html.en and here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/bridges.html.en |
Im not really here, its just your imagination.

See here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/pluggable-transports.html.en and here: https://www.torproject.org/docs/bridges.html.enThanks for the info, I'll look into it and see what I can do with it. I run a Tor relay, so I can set it up to act as a personal bridge as well (it's currently internal-only) if necessary. I glanced through it, and it seems to be an easier way to do the same type of thing I've been attempting to set up (a way to mask all traffic as HTTPS to fool DPI), which I haven't had the time to get working yet. |

Have you tried running the wallets though? I would think its worth a shot. You might be able to connect and sync up. Sure you won't be able to be a broadcast node, but i would think you could use a wallet.

Maybe try something like the websites: hidemyass, hidemyip or anything in that direction.
I used to used blocked websites everyday on school and we always found around those block they put up.
Like you can also try www1.address.com, www2.address.com
Or you can try this handy program Ive used this for a while and it's really good: Hotspot Shield launch
Its a free vps service, my dad blocks my internet trough our router for a while and with that program i could pass the block.
But now we have a new router and it blocks the vpn to, so no internet for me past 1:30.

Try airvpn. I used it to make multibit work at my local library and they offer a free 3 day trial (on request).
