Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. This condition was caused by a lack of detailed review of the Return to Title IV calculation and days used in the Spring 2024 semester. As a result, four students' Return to Title IV calculations were performed using incorrect start dates for the 2024 Spring semester resulting in an understatement in $84 of Pell awards to the students. The College corrected this issue with the Department of Education on July 30, 2024. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College implement a review process to ensure the number of days used in the Return to Title IV calculation is accurate and that the Return to Title IV calculation is being reviewed by a second individual. Corrective Action. The College has performed the necessary steps to correct the error and will develop a process to ensure that a second individual is reviewing the work performed.

1. Corrective Action Step A. Strengthening Internal Controls Over Determination of Applications Demonstrating Questionable Eligibility The School Corporation will develop and implement a segregation of duties, ensuring that current individuals approve applications, perform Direct Certification checks, and conduct follow-up verifications of questionable applicatoins in a more directed manor. If an applicant provides a case number that does not appear on the Direct Certification list the School Corporation will: 1. Review the application based on standard income eligibility requirements, while confirming the application will remain subject to verification. 2. If $0 income is provided or the application is otherwise 'questionable' then the reviewing individual will add the following to the application comments field: reviewing individual name, reason for review request, to whom the application will be escalated. 3. Apply benefits to siblings, if appropriate. 4. Not complete the final step of marking the application as processed, rather leave it 'pending' and notify Director of School Nutrition of the need for this application to be reviewed. 5. Director of School Nutrition or designee will review and either confirm the DC status by downloading the certification or conduct follow-up verification. In either case, approved or verification for cause, the Director of School Nutrition or Designee will mark the application as processed. 6. If the verification for cause is not responded to in a timely manner, the status will revert to 'Paid' status as per 'verification for cause' guidelines. 2. Corrective Follow-Up and Reporting The School Corporation will review all applications from current year (FY 24-25) to identify any applications not subject to verification process. Management will report progress on implementing these corrective actions to the School Board and maintain records for review by auditors and state officials. 3. Anticipated Completion Date The review of current year (FY 24-25) applications will be completed March 21, 2025. The school board report will be completed April 11, 2025.

Criteria, Condition, Cause: We concur that our timely reporting of academically dismissed students during the non-required summer term is an issue and will be vigilant to prevent this delayed reporting in the fun1re. It should be noted that this small cohort was all deemed ineligible to return for the upcoming semester on the same day, and so that singular days' enrollment status changes were the only updates that were untimely in the submission to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). We will be modifying and monitoring our process to accurately capture and report to the NSLDS sh1dents determined to be ineligible to return in the fall semester even during a tenn of non-required enrollment. Effect, Questioned costs, Context: Enrollment rosters and updated enrollment statuses are reported regularly with NSLDS to ensure current enrollment status that can impact loan repayment dates and in-school deferments are accurately on record with the Department of Education. For the summer enrollment roster, although Allegheny's summer term is a non-required tern1, students that are not enrolled in the summer tern1, but Allegheny is aware that they will not be enrolled in the upcoming required fall tem1 must be reported as withdrawn through the summer enrollment roster. Recommendation The College will continue to confom1 to the NSLDS reporting process and timeline, and with the collaboration of the Financial Aid's, Registrar's, and Provost's Offices, will fully bring the non-required term enrollment reporting into alignment. For the next non-required summer tern1 enrollment report in 2025, Allegheny will be incorporating the shtdents determined to be academically dismissed from the spring tenn on the initial summer enrollment roster with the updated withdrawn stah1s. The initial summer enrollment roster will be submitted within 60 days.

Context: During testing of activities allowed and unallowed/allowable costs, it was noted the School Corporation transferred $48,693 from the School Lunch Fund to the JCHS Prepaid Food/Trust Acct to settle negative student balances deemed uncollectible. Outstanding student debt resulting from nonpayment of school meals or milk is an unallowable expenditure to the nonprofit school food service account and cannot be absorbed by the food service program at the end of the school year. It must be paid for with other non-federal sources. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Shannon Current Contact Phone Number: 260-726-9341 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding now that we have more clarifying information. Prior to this audit, we were told we had to use non-federal funds to write off the debt. The published documentation we had was vague as it only stated non-federal funds. With the assistance of our food service company, we were told that catering, adult meals, and al a carte were all non-federal funds. They also had a calculation for figuring out the amount of non-federal funds that we had to make sure it was enough to cover the negative debt. Description of Corrective Action Plan: Moving forward, I will make sure that any negative debt is written off using the operations fund, rainy day, or other approved fund. Anticipated Completion Date: The next time we are required to write off debt. Possibly June 30, 2025.

The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce audited the Nutrition Department last school year and found the same inconsistencies in its accounting and claiming practices. For this reason, we implemented a new point of sale (POS) system in all schools during the summer of 2024. Implementing the POS system will eliminate human errors in our paper-tracking meal-claiming practices. With the new POS system, the cashier presses a “meal” key when students receive a reimbursable meal. Doing so automatically tallies the day's meal counts for breakfast and lunch. The POS system will "flag" schools that have over claimed their enrollment. This flagging system is the same system that is on the CRRS site that the state uses. The new POS can also generate monthly CN-6 & 7 forms, which automatically add up the school's monthly breakfast and lunch counts and are used to file meal reimbursement in CRRS. Daily the managers check their end of day reports to make sure the meals were accounted for properly and not over claimed. At the end of the month our accounting team also checks the meal counts for accuracy before the numbers are entered into CRRS.
