Join Us to Fix College Transfer A Revolution in College Transfer Interstate Passport® is the only nationwide network of accredited , nonprofit, public and private two- and four-year institutions dedicated to the block transfer of lower-division general education attainment based on multi-state faculty-developed learning outcomes and proficiency criteria instead of on specific courses and credits.
