Notes to SEFA

The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (the schedule) includes the federal award activity of the University of Sioux Falls (the University) under programs of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2025. The information 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). Because the schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the University, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets or cash flows of the University.
Federal Perkins Loan Program expenditures reported on the schedule consist of the beginning of year outstanding loan balance plus advances made during the year, of which there were none. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2025, was $365,715. The Federal government allowed the Federal Perkins Loan Program to expire in September 2017. The University is continuing to service existing loans and is remitting the federal portion of the loans to the Department of Education as directed.
