The Financial Aid Processing team in University Enrollment Services receives and resolves the issues in the report weekly to ensure that students are not awarded in excess of their assigned cost of attendance. In order to correct the issue of the incorrect calculation of the cost of attendance components, a testing plan has been developed that includes manually checking each program cost of attendance prior to signing off for production aid packaging. The script that caused the cost of attendance components to be doubled was corrected prior to the 2023-2024 aid year. Anticipated Completion Date: Completed

Action Taken: The Board has developed a process to correctly allocate expenditures to the correct funding stream. At each month’s end, all employees complete an allocation spreadsheet. When all spreadsheets are completed, approved, and turned in, the Board determines the allocation of payroll and expenditures. Expenditures that occurred in March will be allocated using the allocation chart for February. Also, this procedure is backup for each cash request that is submitted for funding. And, this is reviewed for the reconciliation between the cash request and the Board’s accounting software.

Action Taken: The Board’s Youth Liaison monitors the In School and Out of School Youth eligibility every six months following the policy and procedures referencing the CF200. The Board’s Youth Liaison reviews the Youth files to determine if the Youth meets the eligibility criteria for the Youth program. Her monitoring is reviewed every six months during the State Audit. The Board will review her monitoring along with copies of the completed registrations from the Board’s subrecipient which determines which program the youth (Youth In or Youth Out) is eligible for the fiscal year. The Board will state that they have reviewed the eligibility perimeters and these were followed by the subrecipient and verified by the Youth Liaison. For the Adult Program, the Board has implemented internal controls to ensure each applicant completes the applications and to determine if they are eligible for the programs the Board offers. Our Business Services Manager reviews each application taken by the Board’s Career Services Coordinator and ensures they are in the correct program by the application.

Reports will be reviewed and approved by one of the managers of the Board within the time the report is due. For the ETA-9130 Financial report, the Board cannot submit this report since the Board is not a grantee for a Federal organization. Workforce WV submits this report by gathering the information they receive from all Development Boards and consolidates in this report for the Department of Labor. To send Workforce WV the reports they need to file this report, the Board will have the reports prepared and not submit them until another of the Board’s managers has reviewed and approved the preparation and submission of these reports in a timely manner.

The Board will review various reports for each funding stream at month end and record the actual earmarking percentage for each month. With this information, the Board will discuss these percentages at the monthly manager’s meeting, budget meeting and Board of Directors meeting. If a plan of action is needed, a plan of action will be developed. Also, Workforce WV has a software system that takes the expenditures reported for each funding stream, for each month, called the MACC report in which each Region completes a report that will verify which percentages are not in compliance. The Board will be comparing this report to the analysis report from the State.

Cause and potential effect as presented in the Summary of Findings and Questioned Costs: The University's internal controls for determining that a loan disbursement notification was sent for each disbursement made was not operating effectively. Accordingly, the University did not send a loan notification for disbursements within the required timeframe nor with the required information. Narrative Explanation: The general Financial Aid Award letter-directing the student to view their Loan Disbursement information was insufficient to meet the requirement. While the students have direct access to their student accounts that show disbursement activity and the institution has posted to their website the required terms of loan disbursements, the federal direct loan disbursement notification was not sent to the student or parent within the required 30 days before or 30 days after the disbursement was credited to the student's account and did not include the necessary information regarding the student's right or parent's right to cancel per 34 CFR section 668.165. Corrective action: The Student Financial Aid office reached out to our software vendor Ellucian Colleague and similar peer institutions to create a Loan Disbursement Notification notice. Effective immediately, all term disbursements will receive Loan Disbursement Notification notices. The Financial Aid Transmittal process (FATR) is run each week on Tuesday morning. The notices will be emailed weekly using a date range from the last financial aid transmittal date to the current date. Should more than one FATR be run in a week’s time, the notices would increase in frequency and intensity. The documents will be archived in batches within our current Document Imaging System by date. Additionally, a section on the Student Financial Aid website will be dedicated to the Disbursement Information, including Loan Notifications and Right to Cancel Loan procedures. MUSC is currently in the process of implementing a new Student Information System with a go live date scheduled for February 2025. During implementation we will configure the new SIS to automatically send the Loan Disbursement notifications to the students when their funds have been credited to the student’s accounts. You may direct questions to me at freelan@musc.edu or by telephone at 843-792-4364.

2023-002. Finding: Student Enrollment Reporting– Both Campuses Response: The campuses have implemented processes to prevent further errors in enrollment reporting, despite the disconnects and system problems that have been observed. Corrective Action Plan: SIUC has implemented a process where in each time an NSLDS roster is received (twice a month), it is run against a list of Title IV aid students to identify any that are not on the roster in order to remedy the omission as soon as possible. The current course of action at SIUE is to monitor students per term who are up for graduation but are not enrolled for the full semester. Students who are up for graduation will be enrolled in UNIV 500 for the remainder of the term after completing requirements earlier in the semester in which they are graduating. This would be in line with our Continuous Enrollment Policy 1L16. While this is currently a manual process, SIUE continues to look for ways to systematically indicate the student is withdrawn in later part of term in which they are graduating, or to withdraw the student from the later part of the term.
