Question Can I host a minecraft server though a VPN?

[MinecrafterNoobq2123]

I am hosting a minecraft server on my pc but can't access port forwarding on my university's internet - would it be possible to connect the minecraft server to an aws EC2 instance and have my friends join from there?

Ask your university's IT department as they are the ones in charge of that network and it looks like they obviously don't want certain things to be done on it. We're not going to help you get around their restrictions.
