North Idaho College is the latest institution to join the Interstate Passport Network, a coalition of two- and four-year institutions which allow for block-transfer of credits between other member schools. Boasting 25 schools spread throughout 9 states, the network allows the transfer of lower-division general education credits based on learning outcomes instead of specific courses taken and passed. The network claims to be a system of support for 40% of community college students who will transfer to different schools, according to a 2015 report from the National Student Clearinghouse.
