Finding 2023-002: Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Federal Program Titles: Emergency Housing Vouchers Assistance Listing Number: 14.EHV Noncompliance – E. Eligibility - Tenant Files Non Compliance Material to the Financial Statements: No Significant deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance for Eligibility Criteria: Tenant Files. The PHA must do the following: As a condition of admission or continued occupancy, require the tenant and other family member to provide necessary information, documentation, and releases for the PHA to verify income eligibility (24 CFR sections 5.230, 5.609, and 982.516). Condition: Based upon inspection of the Authority’s files and on discussions with management there were documents that were unavailable for examination at the time of audit. Context: Of a sample size of six (6) tenant files, the following information was unavailable for examination at the time of audit: • Annual 50058 form • Annual inspection form Our sample size is statistically valid. Known Questioned Costs: $1,775 Cause: There is a significant deficiency in internal controls over the compliance for the eligibility type of compliance related to the maintenance of tenant files. The Authority has not properly considered and designed a system of internal controls that reasonably assures the program is in compliance. Effect: The Emergency Housing Vouchers Program is in non-compliance with the eligibility type of compliance related to the maintenance of tenant files. Recommendation: We recommend the Authority design and implement internal control procedures that will reasonably assure compliance with the Uniform Guidance and the compliance supplement. Authority Response: We agree with the Auditor’s observations on the inspection of the tenant files and will implement internal control procedures that will assure tenant file compliance. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective action: The PHA has taken into consideration the Auditor’s recommendation in regards to Emergency Housing Vouchers (EHV) program. During the audit period, the staff assigned to the EHV program changed three times, resulting in program deficiencies. Currently a more skilled tenant interviewer is responsible for voucher processing, therefore program compliance will be in line with HUD requirement.

Title: Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing Nos. 84.007, 84.033, 84.063, 84.268 Recommendation: We recommend the University review its SAP review policies to ensure it is completed timely and before Title IV disbursements occur. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Prior to this finding, in November 2022 our Registrar implemented a change in process to require a form when assigning either an L and I grade to a student. This ensures that the correct grade type is used in all cases depending on the nature of the work still outstanding. In doing so, it allows more accurate and timely assess a student’s GPA for SAP status on a regular schedule within the timeline expected for each type of grade when a final grade is determined. The Financial Aid office had also implemented an additional tracking mechanism outside of our ERP system to monitor the SAP status of each student to augment deficiencies in our ERP related to tracking the correct status over time. This tracking occurs regardless of the timing of a FAFSA being completed or the consistency of student enrollment from one semester to the next. This allows us to know the eligibility status of a student prior to awarding and disbursement, and require an appeal when appropriate. This was implemented May 2023. Regardless, as per policy and as we’ve been doing, we will continue to evaluate grade changes at the time of the next regular SAP evaluation period, and enforce the policy based on their status from that point forward.

Condition: A student received a direct subsidized loan despite showing no financial need, as the student's EFC was higher than the student's COA. The student's EFC was determined to be $24,282, whereas their COA was $20,686. Despite no financial need existing, the student was awarded a direct subsidized loan of $3,500, resulting in an over award. In conjunction with our FY2023 audit, please see the College's corrective action plan below: Management agrees this student had an incorrect type of loan awarded. Based off the students EFC number the loan should have been an unsubsidized loan and not the subsidized loan. The Financial Aid office will make the corrections of the loan type to the student's account. Financial Aid will add an internal control process to ensure there is a second verification of student federal loans in place.

Corrective Action: To prevent this in the future, in addition to the mandatory verification, a second person, School Food Service Director or Director of Shared Food Services will randomly test a sample of school meal applications. Beginning in 2023-2024, many of the school buildings will be serving meals for free under the Community Eligibility Provision which will drastically reduce the number of free and reduced meal applications needed to be processed. Between the reduction in applications and the implementation of random testing, we are confident these inaccuracies will be resolved. Additional checks and balances will be put in place immediately so that reliance is not solely on the computerized system.
