TransPacific Hawaii College was a private junior college located in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA. It was founded in 1977 and was initially known as the Kansai Gaidai Hawaii College. It received its current name in 1998. The College is scheduled to close its operation as of the end of December, 2008 as the financial outlook is inadequate to keep the institution running further. The closure was decided as the College failed to respond the financial concern raised by its accreditation agency, Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.

All degrees awarded after 1985 are accredited and valid.

Students' academic records will be kept by the Kansai Gaidai University after the closure of the college.

The College confers the Associate in Liberal Arts Degree.It teaches approximately 250 international students, mainly coming from Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand.
