FINDING 2022-002 ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Enrollment Reporting: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Recommendation: We recommend that the University develop additional procedures to monitor the accuracy of information provided by its third-party servicer on behalf of the University to NSLDS. One additional monitoring control could be to review a sample of students within NSLDS after each roster file response to ensure that the enrollment status is accurate. Each institution has access to correct information directly within NSLDS at any time. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions ? Management agrees with the importance of ensuring timely and accurate NSLDS reporting in accordance with 34 CFR section 685.309(b)(2)(i)). The NCU Quality Assurance, under Brandy Baker, team now reviews enrollment reporting on a regular basis to confirm the reporting process is consistent with the Title IV regulation. Starting in January 2023, Quality Assurance team leads investigations while partnering with our Financial Aid Director, Kimberly Quinn, and our Registrar team, under Chris Alvarado, to determine the cause of the inaccurate reporting for quality assurance review findings and will work with the appropriate departments and teams to ensure that any required corrections to process, reporting, reporting code or systems is rectified. Management agrees with the importance of communicating with the Department of Education when an enrolled student ceases to be enrolled at least half-time.

FINDING 2022-001 ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Return of Title IV: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Recommendation ? We recommend NCU revise their system queries to capture all withdrawn students and implement a process by which the queries are tested annually. We also recommend NCU implement a process in which there is a final review of the Title IV return after the fact for all students to ensure all aspects are correct and timely. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions ? Management agrees with the importance of ensuring that the return of Title IV funds (R2T4) is performed both timely and accurately. In November 2022, the University instituted a new workflow process that is easily tracked and reported, allowing our Processing, under Kimberly Quinn, and Quality Assurance, under Brandy Baker, teams to monitor and control the R2T4 process more effectively. In addition, the Quality Assurance team at NCU is now performing regular and periodic file reviews to ensure file accuracy. The Quality Assurance process includes a review of both an assessment of the accuracy of our calculations and that all required R2T4s are complete. These new internal controls ensure we process R2T4 in accordance with 34 CFR section 668.22 (2)(i) in the required timeframe. We anticipate the changes mentioned above will remediate this finding.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: During the pandemic, the TEFAP program was expanded using COVID-19 relief funds. Three Square had a misunderstanding in the classification of these supplemental commodities, and believed them to be part of COVID-19 relief and as such did not necessitate an executed TEFAP Agency Partner Services Agreement. The four entities mentioned in the finding who received TEFAP commodities only received these supplemental COVID-19 commodities. This finding was not pervasive throughout the organization, but rather isolated to a temporary program, which has now ended. To ensure effective internal controls, Three Square has designed a system to ensure an executed TEFAP Agency Partner Services Agreement is obtained prior to any TEFAP distribution to an Agency Partner. Moving forward, our agency services team will review all orders containing any federal commodity, regardless of the federal program. They will verify eligibility before approval is given to the warehouse to deliver the products.
