Title: Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing Nos. 84.007, 84.0033, 84.063, 84.268 Recommendation: We recommend the College review its reporting procedures to ensure that students’ statuses are accurately and timely reported to NSLDS as required by regulations. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Last year, we developed additional validation steps to ensure that the status of every student who has completed their program and graduated is accurately reflected at both the National Student Clearinghouse and NSLDS. These validation steps improved the accuracy of reporting for students included in the bulk reporting process. I will conduct a comprehensive review of our current reporting procedures to identify any gaps or inefficiencies. An additional staff member will be trained to report individual students to the National Student Clearinghouse in a timely manner, ensuring that any "one-off" updates are promptly completed.

Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. Various Recommendation: We recommend the University reevaluate its procedures and review policies surrounding reporting status changes to NSLDS to put a process in place to ensure the student status changes are being reported timely. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Financial aid maintains a log of all Title IV withdrawals, and going forward it will provide access to this log to the Registrar’s Office and will notify the Associate Registrar each time a student is determined to be withdrawn for R2T4 purposes. This will ensure that the Financial Aid Office and the Registrar’s Office are aligned with regard to a student’s Title IV enrollment status. This will be particularly helpful to ensure compliance for students enrolled in modules, where a student could be considered withdrawn for a semester even if their transcript shows that credit was earned for all of their officially attempted credits. This compliance issue was discovered and remediated by Drake prior to the audit as part of our own internal review process. Upon each submission of the graduation data file to the National Student Clearinghouse, the Registrar’s Office will double-check the count of awarded degrees that appear on the submission file and compare it to the number of awarded degrees as reported by Drake’s student information system. Additionally, shortly after each file is submitted to the NSC, the Registrar’s Office will cross-check a sample of JD graduates against both the NSC database and the NSLDS database to ensure that the graduation status for graduates of the JD program is being accepted and processed by the NSC as expected, and that they are in turn properly reported to NSLDS. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Kevin Moenkhaus, Associate Registrar and Brandi Miller, Assistant Director of Financial Aid. Planned completion date for corrective action plan: September 1, 2024.

This finding is due to the District not having the proper controls in place to prevent, detect, or correct incomplete applications and incorrect eligibility guideline thresholds for the Household Application for Free and Reduced Priced School Meals. This was the first full year for the District’s new Food Service Director, and she was unaware that the income level guidelines for eligibility were not already updated in Meal Magic at the start of the school year. The District is now aware that this is a manual change that needs to be made on an annual basis prior to the start of the next school year. The District is implementing additional procedures to ensure that applications are filled out completely and that the eligibility income thresholds are updated annually before any applications are processed. The persons responsible for the corrective action are Tamie Gillespie, the Food Service Director, and Dina Schmidt, the Business Manager. The anticipated completion date of the corrective action plan is immediate. The plan for monitoring adherence is the Food Service Director will ensure that eligibility income level guidelines are properly input each year and monitor each application to ensure they are complete.

We recommend that the District implement a thorough review process of entered data prior to certification of claims data. We also recommend that a secondary review of claims data be done by a District finance department staff to ensure proper claims data. Corrective Action. The District will implement a thorough review process of entered data prior to certification of claims data.

Corrective Action. The District will review vendors over $25,000 spent with federal funds to ensure that they are not suspended or debarred and retain documented support for the procedures performed.
