Award Period: June 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023
Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance, Other Matter
Criteria or specific requirement: Institutions are required to report enrollment information under the Pell grant and the Direct loan programs via the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) (OMB No. 1845-0035) (Pell, 34 CFR 690.83(b)(2); Direct Loan, 34 CFR 685.309). Institutions must review, update, and verify student enrollment statuses, program information, and effective dates that appear on the Enrollment Reporting Roster file or on the Enrollment Maintenance page of the NSLDS Professional Access (NSLDSFAP) website. There are two categories of enrollment information; “Campus Level” and “Program Level,” both of which need to be reported accurately and have separate record types. The NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide provides the requirements and guidance for reporting enrollment details using the NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Process. Institutions must report enrollment changes within 30 days; however, if a roster file is expected within 60 days, you may provide the updated data on that roster file. The University must also have an adequate process to internally review submissions to either the third-party servicer or directly to NSLDS. Additionally, Institutions are required to ensure adequate internal controls over compliance are established and maintained in accordance with 2 CFR
200.303.
Condition: During our testing of the Direct Loan and Pell Grant programs, we selected a sample of 40 student enrollment changes to test for timeliness and accurate reporting of student status changes to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Our testing resulted in the following items of noncompliance.
1. 1 individual student where a student's campus-level enrollment status was not correctly reported to NSLDS. 34 CFR 685.309 (b)(1) and 34 CFR 690.83(b)(2)
2. 7 individual students where a student's campus-level enrollment effective date was not correctly reported to NSLDS. 34 CFR 685.309 (b)(1) and 34 CFR 690.83(b)(2)
3. 34 instances where a student’s enrollment status change was not reported timely to NSLDS. 34 CFR 685.309(b)(1) and 34 CFR 690.83(b)(2)
4. 1 instance where a student’s program-level enrollment effective date did not match the institutions records. 34 CFR 685.309(b)(1) and 34 CFR 690.83(b)(2)
Questioned costs: N/A
Context: Out of a sample of 40 enrollment changes selected for testing for the requirement noted above, we noted 40 students with exceptions as described above. 5 students had multiple instances of noncompliance.
Cause: The University was unaware of the errors which were caused by the transmission of data between there student information system and the third-party servicer.
Effect: The NSLDS system could not be updated accurately or timely with student enrollment information.
Repeat finding: No
Recommendation: We recommend that the University enhance its policies and procedures regarding enrollment reporting including additional monitoring over the third-party service provider to ensure that
reporting is completed accurately and timely.

Award Period: June 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023
Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance, Other Matter
Criteria or specific requirement: As outlined under 34 CFR 668.164(l), an institution must have a process that ensures SFA funds are never escheated to a state, revert to the institution, or revert to any other third party. Additionally, if a check sent to a student or parent is not returned to the institution and is not cashed, the institution must return the funds to the Secretary no later than 240 days after the date it issued the check. Additionally, Institutions are required to ensure adequate internal controls over compliance are established and maintained in accordance with 2 CFR 200.303.
Condition: During our testing of outstanding SFA checks, we identified nine checks outstanding that had not been returned to the Department of Education within 240 days.
Questioned costs: Federal Pell Grant - $2,691; Federal Direct Student Loans - $3.
Context: Out of our population and sample of nine outstanding SFA checks, we noted all nine had the exception described above.
Cause: The University had been under the impression that Pell checks may go stale dated and escheat to the state as unclaimed until an internal auditor informed the School that all Title IV aid is to be returned to the DOE and not allowed to escheat, including the Federal Pell Grant. After the internal audit, it was identified that two of the checks were Direct Loans and not Pell.
Effect: The University did not return all SFA funds timely.
Repeat finding: No
Recommendation: We recommend that the University enhance its policies and procedures regarding stale-dated check escheatment to ensure that the funds are returned to the appropriate program within 240 days from the date of issue.
