Management acknowledges the finding related to Return of Title IV (R2T4) calculations and the timeliness of returns. The University recognizes the importance of accurate calculations and timely processing in compliance with federal regulations. The errors identified were primarily related to inaccuracies in determining the total number of days in the payment period and ensuring the correct data elements were consistently applied within the student information system. While corrective actions were implemented following the prior audit, management has determined that additional controls and validation procedures are necessary to ensure consistent accuracy. To address this issue, the University has implemented and will continue to implement the following corrective actions: 1. System Configuration Review and Validation – The student information system configuration for R2T4 calculations has been reviewed and updated to ensure that academic calendars, including term dates and scheduled breaks, are accurately reflected. These configurations will be validated prior to the start of each term. 2. Enhanced Calculation Review Process – A secondary review of a sample of R2T4 calculations will be performed to verify the accuracy of key inputs, including days attended, total days in the term, and applicable aid types. 3. Standardized Procedures and Checklists – The University has developed standardized procedures to ensure consistent application of federal requirements, including proper ordering of funds and treatment of post-withdrawal disbursements. 4. Timeliness Monitoring – Processes have been enhanced to track and monitor the timing of R2T4 calculations and returns to ensure compliance with required deadlines. 5. Training and Staff Development – Financial aid staff have received additional training on R2T4 requirements, with a focus on calculation components, system inputs, and regulatory updates. 6. Ongoing Quality Assurance Reviews – Periodic internal reviews will be conducted to assess compliance and identify any discrepancies for prompt correction. Management believes these enhanced controls and monitoring procedures will address the root causes of the finding and prevent recurrence. Implementation Date: July 1, 2025 Responsible Party: Chrissie Isenberg (Director of Financial Aid)

Corrective Action Planned: Management reviewed this instance and performed a detailed analysis of our internal controls, procedures and other like transactions. Management concluded that it was an isolated incident that occurred due to the timing and processing of the voided transaction and the transition to a new grant year. Vivent Health has implemented additional controls including dual review of grant year-to-date expenditures and system and reporting enhancements that will identify and prevent changes related to prior periods. Specific steps taken are: 1) retrained accounts payable team on void check procedure, 2) implemented a system enhancement that does not permit a user to enter any transaction type to a prior month that has been closed (also planned for new financial system to be implemented by September 2026), 3) examined all void check transactions for any grant-related expenditures that crossed the last two fiscal years with no instance of duplicate invoicing identified, and 4) implemented dual review of running a YTD general ledger report for all grants and comparing total expenditures for the grant period versus total expenditures claimed in the prior month. Name(s) of Contact Person(s) Responsible for Corrective Action: Erin Crandall, VP Finance Anticipated Completion Date: These actions were implemented February 2026 and will be documented throughout the current fiscal year, with completion at fiscal year-end (August 31, 2026). Vivent Health is implementing a new ERP system in September 2026 and will ensure these controls are in place.

Views of Responsible Officials: Management concurs with the finding. During FY2025, the organization experienced significant disruption related to Federal stop-work orders and associated cost-reduction measures, including staff terminations and the discontinuation of certain legacy systems during the transition and integration of operations with Global Communities. As a result, for some employees in the audit sample—particularly those who separated from the organization prior to the FY2025 attestation cycle—management was unable to retrieve employee-signed conflict of interest attestations for the immediately preceding period because the systems and files used to capture and retain those acknowledgments were no longer accessible, and responsible personnel were no longer employed. Management notes that, for a portion of the employee population, the FY2025 ethics training included a conflicts of interest section requiring employee acknowledgment; however, system limitations affected the ability to produce individual, employee-named attestations for all sampled employees in a format suitable for audit evidence. Planned Corrective Actions: Following the operational integration with Global Communities, management is strengthening controls over conflict of interest compliance by: (1) requiring conflict of interest acknowledgment at onboarding and on a periodic basis thereafter through a standardized process; (2) maintaining a centralized tracking mechanism to monitor completion status; (3) retaining documentation in a centralized repository/personnel record to ensure retrievability; and (4) performing periodic monitoring to confirm completion and retention across headquarters and field locations. These actions are intended to improve documentation, transparency, and ongoing compliance with conflict of interest requirements and standards of conduct.

The institution reviewed the identified R2T4 calculations and, where necessary, corrected the amounts returned to ensure compliance with federal regulations. The College implemented several procedural and staffing changes to strengthen internal controls and improve segregation of duties related to the Return of Title IV Funds process. These improvements include: • Establishing a formal secondary review of all R2T4 calculations and fund return transactions prior to processing. A second qualified Finance staff member will review and verify: • The withdrawal date • The calculation methodology • The percentage of the payment period completed • The final amount of Title IV funds returned • Separating responsibilities for calculation, review, and posting of Title IV fund returns to ensure appropriate segregation of duties. • Implementing documented procedures and checklists to verify that the correct type and amount of Title IV funds are returned in accordance with federal requirements. • Providing additional staff training related to R2T4 processing and compliance requirements. Management believes that these corrective actions significantly strengthen internal controls and reduce the likelihood of similar errors occurring in the future. The College will continue to monitor compliance with these procedures and perform periodic supervisory reviews to ensure that controls remain effective.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: QARI agrees with the finding and will implement policies and procedures to draw down Federal funds only for its immediate Federal program cash needs. The timing of the drawdown in FY2025 reflected a conservative cash management decision made to ensure continuity of program operations and payroll given uncertainty about delays in accessing Federal funds. As a result, Federal funds were not fully disbursed within the required timeframe. This approach was intended to safeguard program delivery and did not result in misuse of funds. QARI has updated its cash management procedures to ensure that future Federal drawdowns are limited to immediate Federal program cash needs and are disbursed within required timelines. Management oversight has been strengthened to monitor drawdown timing and maintain ongoing compliance with Federal cash management requirements.
