Purpose: To document Santa Clara University’s Corrective Action Plan relating to finding 2024-001 in its June 30, 2024 Single Audit Report. Finding #2024-002: Criteria The institution shall require each applicant whose application is selected by the Department of Education to verify the information required for the Verification Tracking Group to which the applicant is assigned.

Corrections and updates can be submitted by the student on the web or by the institution using the FSA Access to Central Processing System Online or the Electronic Data Exchange. Statement of Condition During testwork, KPMG selected 40 students that were selected for verification. Of the 40 students selected for verification test work, one student’s information required for the appropriate Verification Tracking Group was not completed and 6 students had inconsistencies for which corrections were not submitted. Corrective Action Planned The University agrees with this assessment and is implementing a new process to ensure verifications will now have a second approver who will ensure verifications are completed correctly.

Purpose: To document Santa Clara University’s Corrective Action Plan relating to finding 2024-001 in its June 30, 2024 Single Audit Report. Finding #2024-001: Criteria Institutions must report disbursement data to Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system within 15 calendar days after the institution makes a disbursement or becomes aware of the need to make an adjustment to previously reported student disbursement data or expected student disbursement data. Institutions may do this by reporting once every 15 calendar days, bi-weekly or weekly, or may set up their own system to ensure that disbursements are reported in a timely manner. Statement of Condition During testwork, KPMG selected 40 students that had Pell Grant or Direct Loan disbursements where the University was required to report student disbursement date to Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system within 15 calendar days after the institution makes a disbursement or becomes award of the need to make an adjustment to previously reported student disbursement data or expected student disbursement data. KPMG identified 5 of the 40 students were not reported to COD in a timely manner. Corrective Action Planned The University agrees with this assessment and is implementing a new process to ensure Direct Loan and Pell Grant disbursements will now be reviewed after each disbursement (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) and are reported within the Department of Education's requirements. Additionally, we will ensure that the COD Workday outbound and inbound integrations are monitored daily.

Assistance Listing 84.334 Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP) Contact Person – Dr. Aja Holden, Ed. D., Office of Postsecondary Readiness The School District of Philadelphia, 215-400-5145 Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: The responsible School District of Philadelphia (SDP) officials agree with the deficiencies identified regarding matching contributions, level of effort, and earmarking for the GEAR UP program. To address this finding, the following corrective actions will be implemented expeditiously to ensure the matching requirements are met by the end of the grant period in 2027: ● Training for Program Staff: Targeted training will be provided for the program staff to ensure a full understanding of the GEAR UP matching requirements, including the necessity for accurate recordkeeping and compliance with the level of effort and earmarking rules. ● Review and Strengthen Documentation Procedures: Complete a comprehensive review of all records and documentation related to matching contributions (including Years 1-3 to recoup unclaimed internal matches that may have been overlooked), and level of effort. A team (including both the School District’s GEAR UP Program Office and Grants Compliance Office) will oversee the collection and verification of all supporting documentation moving forward. This will include a detailed tracking system for in-kind and cash contributions. Lastly, the comprehensive plan will add school-level match requirements for each high school to identify other matching contributions at the school level. ● Monitoring and Oversight: Implement a quarterly leadership review process to ensure that all matching and level of effort requirements are being met and documented in accordance with program guidelines. Any concerns will be immediately addressed and corrected. ● Timeline: These corrective actions will be fully implemented by September 2025, with ongoing monitoring by the GEAR UP Program Office to ensure sustained compliance. We are confident that these actions will remedy the deficiencies that were identified and prevent future occurrences.

Corrective Action Plan: To prevent conflicts between student work schedules and class schedules, the Financial Aid Office will verify, at the beginning of each term, that Federal Work-Study (“FWS”) student work schedules do not conflict with their academic schedules. As part of this verification process, department managers hiring FWS students will submit both the student's work schedule and class schedule to the Financial Aid Office. A report has been developed to compare FWS student work hours with their class schedules during each pay period. Any instances of students working during scheduled class time will be communicated to both the student and their supervisor for correction, if the hours were reported in error. If the hours are accurate, the department must provide documentation of a class schedule change, cancellation, or the fund and organization codes to be charged, crediting the FWS funds accordingly. Timeline for Implementation of Corrective Action Plan: This policy will be implemented immediately and applied retroactively to July 1, 2024.

Corrective Action Plan: Despite previous corrective actions addressing NSLDS reporting findings, an audit has revealed additional discrepancies in reporting between HCC and the National Student Clearinghouse (“NSC”). Our current database generates a file for submission to the NSC, intended to report all graduates. Upon review of the data transmission process, it has been determined that students enrolled in simultaneous degree programs require specific evaluation of their graduate status due to the NSC's unique parameters for these programs. Consequently, manual updates to NSLDS will be necessary for cases that fall outside the NSC's automated reporting guidelines. To address this systematically, a working group will be established to review and revise campus policies and procedures. This group will collaborate with the IT Enterprise Operations team to develop refined reporting mechanisms that accurately identify and address students in simultaneous degree programs, ensuring timely and accurate NSLDS reporting. Timeline for Implementation of Corrective Action Plan: The corrective action plan was implemented as of October 2024.
