Mac OS X cannot read .exe files.

That would require either installing Windows using Boot Camp / How to install Windows using Boot Camp

Or Installing VMware or Parallels.

As the school if they offer Mac compatible formatted eBooks.

You cannot. Macs have never been able to open .exe files. See if there is an option to download a pdf copy.

Cheers
