Notes to SEFA

Title: Federal Student Financial Assistance Accounting Policies: The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the Schedule) summarizes the expenditures of Yeshiva University and its subsidiaries (the University or Yeshiva) under programs of the federal government for the year ended June 30, 2022. The information presented in the Schedule is presented on the accrual basis of accounting, which is in accordance with 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 the federal award activity of the University, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets and cash flows of the University. Negative amounts represent adjustments to amounts reported in prior years in the normal course of business. The Uniform Guidance provides for a 10% de minimus indirect cost rate election; however, the University did not make this election and uses a negotiated indirect cost rate when charging indirect costs to federal awards. For purposes of the Schedule, federal awards include all grants, contracts and similar agreements entered into directly between the University and agencies and departments of the federal government and all sub-awards to the University by non-federal organizations pursuant to federal grants, contracts and similar agreements. All Assistance Listing Numbers and passthrough awards numbers are presented where available and applicable. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The auditee did not use the de minimis cost rate. The Uniform Guidance provides for a 10% de minimus indirect cost rate election; however, the University did not make this election and uses a negotiated indirect cost rate when charging indirect costs to federal awards. Campus Based Loan Program. The Federal Perkins Loan Program is administered directly by the University and balances and transactions relating to this program are included in the University's consolidated financial statements. At June 30, 2022, the amount of the Federal Perkins Loan Program (Assistance Listing Number 84.038) outstanding is $2,898,986. The University did not issue new loans under Federal Perkins Loan during fiscal year 2022. Loans outstanding at the beginning of the fiscal year 2022 are included in the federal expenditures presented in the Schedule. With respect to the Federal Direct Lending Program, the University is only responsible for the performance of certain administrative functions; therefore, the transactions and the balances of loans outstanding related to this program are not included in the University's consolidated financial statements. The Schedule includes the amounts loaned to students under this program during the year ended June 30, 2022. It is not practical to estimate the outstanding balance of loans under this program.

Finding Details

2022-001: Reporting on the Fiscal Operations Report and Application to Participate (?FISAP?) Cluster: Student Financial Aid ALN: Various Criteria OMB Uniform Guidance 2 CFR Part 200, Part 5, requires that for institutions that accept student financial aid the auditee must submit a Fiscal Operations Report and Application to Participate. This electronic report is submitted annually to receive funds for the campus-based programs. The institution uses the Fiscal Operations Report portion to report its expenditures in the previous award year and the Application to Participate portion to apply for the following year. In addition, per the FISAP instructions, Section B. Certification and Warning, it is required that the University?s CEO, President, Chancellor, or Director sign the document to certify that the school is in compliance with the anti-lobbying requirements and that the FISAP data is true and accurate. Through certification, the certifying official must be aware that the information in this FISAP is subject to audit and program review. Condition In Part III. Federal Perkins Loan Program for Award Year July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, Section A. Fiscal Report (Cumulative) as of June 30, 2022, the University is unable to provide adequate support to properly reconcile all the components of the Perkins loan balance in the FISAP as of June 30, 2022. Cause There is an ongoing lack of reconciliation of historical Perkins loan balance, resulting in the University reporting unsupported amounts as of June 30, 2022. Effect The amounts reported on the FISAP for the Perkins loan balance were not substantiated by adequate audit support. This amount is reported in an informational section of the FISAP and therefore does not impact the amount of future funding. Questioned Costs As the amount reported was included within an informational section of the FISAP and there is no impact to the future funding the University may receive, there is no identified questioned cost. Recommendation We recommend that the University ensure they have proper controls, including an appropriate reconciliation process, in place to ensure the completeness and accuracy of the FISAP prior to filing. Additionally, the University should access the COD website to make the necessary corrections. As part of the process, the University will provide a description of the change and justify the need to make the correction and submit it for review by the FISAP Change Request Monitoring Team, which will notify the University of their decision around allowing or denying the correction.
