Higher Education Emergency Relief Funds ? Assistance Living No. 84.425 Recommendation: We recommend the University review their reporting procedures to ensure all required steps are included as well as the supporting documentation to prepare the report is retained. The reports should be reviewed by someone other than the preparer of the report and this review should be documented. Views of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: North Central will document in greater detail procedures of maintaining emergency funding. In addition, we will save all reporting in a shared and searchable location so in times of institutional employee turn-over access to reports and information can be available with ease. NCU will engage in the best practice of documenting approvals in a searchable way Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Rachel Wendorf, Director of Student Financial Services Planned completion date for corrective action plan: In process

Pell Grant ? CFDA No. 84.063 Federal Direct Loans ? CFDA No. 84.268 Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants ? CFDA No. 84.007 Federal Work Study Program ? CFDA No. 84.033 Recommendation: We recommend the University reevaluate its procedures and review policies surrounding reporting status changes and other enrollment information to NSLDS to ensure timely and accurate reporting. 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.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDING Finding No. 2022-002: Indirect Costs ? Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Recommendation5 We recommend that ZERO TO THREE enhance its internal control policies to ensure indirect costs are calculated based on the most recent indirect cost rate agreement. Indirect costs should be billed at the lower of the negotiated rates or the actual charges. Action Taken ZERO TO THREE has recently undergone major technological upgrades involving multiple accounting systems. We received the NICRA letter with our new indirect cost rate eight months into the 2022 fiscal year. The late receipt of this letter, combined with challenges of our then antiquated accounting software, made it very difficult to retroactively apply the NICRA rate changes with consistent accuracy. Our new, robust accounting system, implemented October 1, 2022, is designed to easily handle these types of accounting changes going forward. Management is adjusting the cost reimbursements on the federal agreements to reflect the audit adjustment. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action Pia C. Valdivia, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer Expected Completion Date: March 31, 2023 FEDERAL AWARD FINDING Finding No. 2022-003: Indirect Costs ?

To Whom It May Concern: This letter is in response to the audit finding identified in the annual district financial report for fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 issued by Leo Riley & Co. This letter addresses the compliance findings 2022-001, 2022-002 & 2021-001. Weston County School District #7 acknowledges that, due to the small office staff, it makes it impractical for the District to achieve full separation of the accounting functions in the business office. The District has mitigated the risks associated with this limitation through the use of various controls and segregating of functions to the extent possible. This has been accomplished by placing various security levels into the payroll and cash disbursements process. The governing board is also involved in the approval processess as the final authority over payment approval. The District utilizes the accounting manual as provided by the Wyoming Department of Education. The business office staff, district administrative staff, and the school board are fully aware of the situation and are on heightened awareness in performing their duties to further mitigate risks.

Identifying Number: 2022-001 Finding: For the Medical Center?s Period 2 reporting in the HRSA PRF reporting portal, the Medical Center inaccurately reported lost revenues, resulting in an overstatement of lost revenues. Quarterly revenues reported in the PRF reporting portal were misstated for several quarters, resulting in a total overstatement of actual 2019 revenues of $5,197,094, a total overstatement of actual 2020 revenues of $3,996,899, and a total understatement of 2021 actual revenues of $1,915,433. The total net impact of these misstatements to the lost revenue calculation resulted in an understatement of lost revenues reported of $1,903,535. The Medical Center also reported PRF expenses in Period 2 in an amount equal to Period 2 PRF funding received. Therefore, the Medical Center did not report actual revenue data for the third or fourth quarters of 2021. The portal included $100,237,417 of third and fourth quarter 2019 actual revenues in the calculated lost revenue for 2021. While reporting of lost revenue was inaccurate, there were no questioned costs. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: The Medical Center reported lost revenue using Option 1, comparing actual revenues for 2020 and 2021 to actual revenues for 2019. The Medical Center had errors in their formulas calculating actual revenue for the first quarter of 2019, second quarter of 2019, third quarter of 2019, and the second quarter of 2020. Additionally, the Medical Center used preliminary rather than final, audited actual revenue amounts for the second quarter of 2021. Due to the fact that Period 2 PRF expenses were equal to Period 2 PRF distributions received and lost revenue was not needed to qualify for the Period 2 PRF distributions, the Medical Center did not submit actual revenue data for the third nor fourth quarter of 2021 as the portal did not allow data entry beyond what was necessary to cover the Period 2 PRF distributions. As a result, the portal calculated a lost revenue amount for those quarters equal to actual revenues for the third quarter of 2019 and the fourth quarter of 2019. Management had previously added an additional layer of reporting review prior to submission, which includes the Chief Financial Officer, the Controller and the staff member responsible for submitting the information, which was implemented on March 24, 2022. However, this control did not detect previous formula errors. During the Period 4 reporting completed on March 28, 2023, the Controller and staff member corrected the prior formula errors and conducted a dual entry review as the information was reported into the portal. All errors, current and prior, have been corrected. Going forward, the Medical Center will implement checks to ensure that any information reported agrees to audited financial information. Anticipated completion date: March 28, 2023 Name of contact person responsible for corrective action: Gary Botine ? Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

Finding #2022-001 - Segregation of Duties (Prior Year Finding #2021-001) Condition: The available office staff precludes a proper segregation of duties in the control areas reviewed. Effect: Because of the lack of segregation of duties, errors or irregularities could occur and not be detected on a timely basis. Cause: Controls Over Accounts Payable/Disbursements 1. Person processing accounts payable is not always separate from those who print the checks. Controls Over Payroll 1. Person preparing the payroll is not independent of other personnel duties such as custody of the checks and reconciling the bank statements. Criteria: Internal controls should be in place that provide adequate segregation of duties. Recommendation: Procedures should be implemented segregating duties among different employees. Management should continue to maintain a working knowledge of matters relating to the district?s operations. Response: We agree with this finding but due to the size of our District and financial constraints we do not believe it is cost effective to increase the office staff in an attempt to bring about a more effective segregation of duties. The Principal at the High School or Elementary/Middle School approves monthly accounts payable checks and the Department Head or Principal approves payroll timesheets prior to processing payroll. The Principals and Department Heads will continue to monitor transactions of the District. Contact Person: Cale Jackson Anticipated Completion: Not Applicable
