The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal and state awards (the “Schedule”) summarizes the expenditures incurred under all federal and state programs received by the University for the year ended May 31, 2025 and has been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of Campbell University (the “University”), it is not intended to and does not present the consolidated financial position, results of activities, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the University. For purposes of the Schedule, federal and state awards include all grants, contracts, and similar agreements entered into directly between the University and agencies and departments of the federal and state government or subawards. The information in the Schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (“Uniform Guidance”) and the North Carolina Need-Based Scholarship Program and North Carolina Forgivable Education Loans for Service Program Compliance Supplement Guides (“State Guidance”).
The federal and state financial assistance amounts received are subject to audit and adjustment. If any expenditures are disallowed by the applicable cognizant agencies as a result of such an audit, any claim for reimbursement to the cognizant agencies would become a liability of the University. In the opinion of management, all grant expenditures are in compliance with the terms of the agreements and applicable federal and state laws and regulations.
The University is responsible only for the performance of certain administrative duties with respect to its Federal Direct Student Loan programs and, accordingly, these loans are not included in the University’s consolidated financial statements. It is not practicable to determine the balance of loans outstanding to students and former students of the University under these programs as of May 31, 2025.
Amounts included in the Schedule are presented net of matching amounts contributed by the University. Total awards disbursed under those programs and corresponding amounts contributed by the University during the year ended May 31, 2025 are summarized in the table below: REFER TO TABLE. Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grants in the table above include $100,000 in funds transferred from the Federal Work-Study Program as permitted by Federal regulations. Total Federal Work-Study Program Expenditures on the Schedule include administrative cost allowances of $40,002.
The University has not elected to use the de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
Amounts included in the Schedule include federal awards of the Campbell University Foundation, Inc. (the “University Foundation”). Approximately $57 million in federal awards are related to an outstanding loan to the University Foundation from the United States Department of Agriculture that was received during the year ended May 31, 2021. The University Foundation utilized the proceeds totalling $61,458,000 from the Communities Facilities Loans and Grants Cluster for purposes of constructing and repaying interim financing on the Tracy F. Smith Nursing Building, the McLeod Admissions and Financial Aid Center, and the Oscar N. Harris Student Union (collectively, the ”Facilities”). The total balance outstanding as of May 31, 2025 was $57,367,069. The Facilities have been leased to the University Foundation by Campbell University and leased back to the University by the University Foundation. In connection with the Loans from the US Department of Agriculture (”USDA”), the University Foundation granted a security interest in all rents, profits, revenues, and receivables associated with the Facilities to the USDA. Additionally, the USDA has a security interest in all fixtures, machinery, equipment, and personal property located in and used in the operation of the Facilities.
