Transfer to be approved (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pass

I believe this clue is a triple definition!

'transfer' is the first definition.
(I know that pass is a kind of the transfer)

'to be' is the second definition.
(passing is a kind of being)

'approved' is the third definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for pass that I've seen before include "Overtake - get through" , "Narrow route through high mountain, like the Khyber" , "Give indication of not knowing" , "what the Galibier is" , "Overtake; mountain way" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
