Finding 2022-001: Internal control deficiency and noncompliance over the calculation of lost revenues attributable to coronavirus. Condition: Emanate Health and Affiliates incorrectly reported lost revenues attributable to coronavirus in the HRSA PRF Reporting Portal (the ?Portal?) due to errors made in the calculation of lost revenues which resulted in an overstatement of lost revenues of $8,123,440. Planned Corrective Action: In future reporting periods, management will add an additional layer of review of the lost revenue calculation before submission through the Portal. Through this review, management will ensure the lost revenue calculation is performed on a comparable basis which would include the same types of revenues being compared. Management will correct the lost revenues attributable to coronavirus in the next Portal submission, as applicable and ensure any other Portal submissions have the correct lost revenue calculation and is reported correctly.

FINDING 2022-002 ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Borrower Data Transmission and Reconciliation: Condition/context: The University did not have effective internal control in place that would provide reasonable assurance that the University complied with federal regulations, and the University did not complete reconciliations for all of 2022 except March 2022. Cause: Management did not have an established policy and procedure for borrower data transmission and reconciliation. Further, the process was not completed in the noted months due to turnover in the position responsible for performing the monthly reconciliation. Corrective Action Plan: Due to significant turnover in the Financial Aid Office, management has outsourced its financial aid function to a third party. This partnership will ensure monthly loan reconciliations are performed on time and approved by the CFO. Responsible person: Sarah Stooksberry / Cindy Farrington Planned completion date: Completed as of the date of this letter.

2022-002 Various Recommendation: We recommend the University review its reporting procedures surrounding updating the ECAR to ensure reporting is accurate and completed. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: : This finding is linked to the reporting errors that many schools seem to be experiencing with their clearinghouse program length reporting. While our program length for a bachelor?s degree is 60 months, the average completion time nationally is 5 years. In order to eliminate errors with aid eligibility, the Registrar set up an automated process that assigns the Anticipated Graduation Date for 5 years from the initial term of entry. NCU has followed this same process for the past 20 years, and it has never raised any concerns. This is a simple time-saving process that eliminates the need to update the Anticipated Graduation date manually for each student who does not graduate within 4 years prior to running the monthly enrollment reports for NSC. As a member of many national organizations, we continue to monitor this reporting challenge as a university to try to reconcile how to report program length for aid eligibility and program length for clearinghouse compliance. In addition, a quality check process is being developed to ensure graduation dates or enrollment timelines are reported accurately to NSLDS. This work is being completed in tandem with our Registrar?s Office who reports to NSLDS through the National Clearinghouse.

Management agrees with the finding. With the limited number of personnel in the district business office it is not possible to achieve adequate segregation of duties. It is not practical to hire additional personnel in order to achieve complete segregation of duties. The district superintendent closely supervises the district bookkeeper, approves the payment of bills, signs checks that require two signatures and reviews and approves the monthly financial statements. Also, the Board of Education approves the payment of all bills each month and reviews and approves monthly financial statements. The district treasurer reviews the approved payment of bills and signs the checks. The bookkeeper has little access to cash since all state and federal funds are direct deposited in the bank account as well as on line registration and fee payments that are directly deposited in the bank account. Each class sponsor monitors and approves the individual student activity account deposits, which the bookkeeper then verifies as well. The Board of Education and superintendent will continue to perform responsibilities to mitigate the lack of segregation of duties. We will be reviewing processes to ensure everything that can be done will be done to improve compliance.
