Views of Responsible Officials: The College acknowledges the audit finding that Return of Title IV (R2T4) calculations were not accurately completed for nine of the sixty students sampled, and that Title IV funds were not returned timely for fifteen of the sixty students sampled. During the audit period, R2T4 tracking and oversight processes were in transition, which resulted in insufficient monitoring of calculation accuracy and timeliness. In addition, for several end-of-term cases involving unofficial withdrawals, the institution could not initiate R2T4 calculation until final grades were posted and an unofficial withdrawal determination was made based on non-passing (F) grades, in accordance with federal regulations governing unofficial withdrawals. The Fall 2024 semester ended on December 21st. The college was closed for the winter break and reopened January 2, 2025. Therefore, the Date of Determination (DOD) was not two days after the end of the semester but in January with the earliest available processing date being January 2, 2025. Corrective Action: The College has implemented enhanced internal controls to ensure compliance with Return of Title IV (R2T4) requirements. Responsibility for monitoring R2T4 calculations and timeliness has been assigned to the Director of Financial Aid and Compliance. A R2T4 tracking log has been established and is reviewed on a weekly basis to ensure that all official withdrawals are identified and processed within the required regulatory timeframe. For unofficial withdrawals, R2T4 calculations are initiated after the end of term once final grades are posted and an unofficial withdrawal date of determination (DOD) is made based on non-passing (F) grades, consistent with federal regulations. End-of-term R2T4 reviews for the fall semester are conducted upon return from winter break after the New Year to ensure complete and accurate academic records are available. Internal staff have received additional training on R2T4 regulatory requirements, timelines, and documentation standards. To ensure operational continuity, a senior specialist has been trained to manage R2T4 processing in the Director's absence. These corrective actions will strengthen internal controls and ensure accurate and timely processing of R2T4 calculations.

Views of Responsible Officials: After consultation with the College’s Information Technology department, management determined that the file was processed and submitted on time. However, the NSLDS discrepancy resulted from a data processing issue during the March 2025 enrollment status download. Specifically, while the NSLDS file was being generated, staff from another office were simultaneously accessing the same student records. These concurrent activities caused the affected students’ enrollment statuses to default to data from a prior download, resulting in incorrect reporting for the two records of the sixty examined. Corrective action: The College has revised its NSLDS data reporting process to prevent a recurrence of concurrent access. A static, saved population list is now used to generate NSLDS enrollment status downloads, eliminating conflicts caused by concurrent system access. This change ensures that enrollment status data is not impacted and remains consistent at the time of submission. Management believes this corrective action adequately addresses the identified issue, strengthens controls, mitigate this issue for future status change reports, and allows for accurate submission within the required 60-day timeframe.
