From the FileZilla documentation you can use the quick connect bar to connect to your server. You'll need your hostname, username, and password. You should have gotten these in your login and setup email from Web Hosting for Students.

Once you've successfully connected, you'll be able to upload and transfer files.

Edit: I also found a tutorial on cpanel ftp. I can't vouch for it, as I haven't used it before. Try that if you don't want to use a separate program, although I highly recommend it - they'll be nicer and have more features.

If you have the login and password to get into your cPanel you can: (1) Login to cPanel (2) Go to the file directory area (3) Upload your files from inside the directory

If you want to use an FTP client such as FileZilla, then you will need to follow what rydavim said above.

If you use the Firefox browser they have a very good FTP client that you can download for free as an extension to the browser, called FireFTP. You can download FireFTP here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fireftp/
