Incorrect and Untimely Return of Title IV (R2T4) Funds Planned Corrective Action: The Financial Aid Office reviewed the new modular regulations and guidance again as it was identified that exemption(s) were missed in the initial review. The team updated the 2021 NASFAA R2T4 decision tree with notes breaking down the complexity of the new modular regulations and how they apply to our modules/programs. The unofficial withdrawal list for the academic year was re-requested from the registrar?s office and reviewed. Students that met exemption were awarded funds back, recalculated if needed, and processed. Although the Financial Aid Office did implement changes on identifying unofficial withdraws (students were identified) from the prior year finding, the complexity of the modular regulations impacted the finding for 2022. A review of each student?s module will be performed (Executive Director of Financial Aid / Lead Director) and then reviewed and processed by staff member (Financial Aid Director). The final determination list will be compared to the R2T4?s processed.

Special Test and Provisions The Authority was unable to provide evidence that the UPCS or the environmental inspection populations were complete and accurate. Sixty failed UPCS inspections and forty failed environmental inspections were selected for compliance testing out of the total 9,975 failed UPCS inspections and 216 failed environmental inspections, reported by the Authority. ? Internal controls were not in place to ensure that failed UPCS and environmental inspections were remediated. ? For 35 of the 60 failed UPCS inspections tested (58%) and 14 of the 40 (35%) failed environmental inspections, the Authority did not maintain adequate supporting documentation to evidence that the safety concern from the failed inspection was remediated. ? Planned Actions: For the 2024 inspection cycle, the Authority will implement new software protocols that will automatically generate work orders to resolve findings in a failed inspection. It will track mitigations and completion of those work orders, in lieu of re-inspections. Additionally, Portfolio Management team will conduct a regular audit of work orders generated from the annual unit inspections (2%). For environmental findings, the Authority will broaden the scope of the internal inspections to include generating work orders for all findings, and securing all necessary evidence that work was remediated, and all other necessary actions have occurred. For open findings, the Authority is confirming that one or more of the following conditions exist: ? Identified remediation has taken place through a completed work order or comprehensive unit turn. ? Resident has been transferred. ?

During the quality control review process, which coincided with the same timing as the 2022 audit, Legal Department staff identified and corrected all discrepancies within the foregoing documents. This undertaking included the requisite corrections noted above. The CHA Office of the General Counsel is awaiting receipt of filed documents to be returned from the County Clerk?s Office to note the recording information on the respective Excel spreadsheets for accurate reference. Once this update is completed, all Excel spreadsheets will be locked allowing only one point of date entry by the Office of the General Counsel, while making the spreadsheets available as a ?read-only? file.

2022-003 U.S. Department of the Treasury COVID-19: Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, Assistance Listing #21.027 Finding Summary: The City of Sparks did not have adequate internal controls to ensure Project and Expenditure Reports were prepared in accordance with governing requirements. Responsible Person: Jeff Cronk, CPA, Chief Financial Officer Corrective Action Planned: Financial Services staff corrected the Project and Expenditure Report cumulative expenditures for the period ended June 30, 2022. Does the City Agree with the finding: x Partially If No or Partial, please explain the reason(s) why: Financial Services Staff accurately reported current period expenditures on the Project and Expenditure Report for the periods ended December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022. The City elected the $10 million allowance to replace lost public sector revenue as the U.S. Department of Treasury?s guidance stated recipients must choose one of two options and cannot switch between these approaches after an election is made. In consideration that the City had only received the first tranche of $8.1 million during the reporting period, the full $10 million was included in the cumulative expenditures total for revenue replacement. The City believed this was the correct approach to reporting with the guidance available at the time. Upon receiving subsequent Federal guidance that clarified the reporting requirements, cumulative expenditures were updated and properly reported on the Project and Expenditure Report for the period ended June 30, 2022 that was submitted July 25, 2022.

Finding number: 2022-001 Federal agency: U.S. Department of Education Programs: Student Financial Assistance Cluster Assistance Listing Number: 84.063 and 84.268 Award year:2022 Corrective Action Plan: To ensure complete and comprehensive National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) reporting compliance as outlined in 34 CFR 685.309(b)(2) and in 2 CFR Part 200, Appendix XI Compliance Supplement, the College undertook a formal review of its NSLDS policies, processes and reporting procedures.- Our review acknowledges that areas in our current procedures could result in reporting inaccuracies, and we ascertain that these areas of our policies and procedures have now been formally updated to safeguard our future compliance. Changes and additions to current procedures will include a process of more timely reconciliation of monthly enrollment submissions, a more structured reconciliation of withdrawals and graduates, an annual review of the Department of Education's NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide, as well as an annual review/update of our internal policies and procedures. Additionally, the Director of Title IV Compliance will be responsible for enhanced bi-annual trainings of the College Registrar and of the Assistant Dean of Academic Services and Retention on the requirements and importance of NSLDS reporting. As these positions are key to data accuracy, NSLDS reporting functionality and our subsequent compliance with Federal regulations, it is paramount to note that whenever administrative turnover occurs, the new employees must be fully trained in the requirements of NSLDS reporting.

2022-003 Significant Deficiency: National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) Report (U.S. Department of Education, William D. Ford Direct Loan Program, ALN #84.268 and Federal Pell Grant Program, ALN #84.063) Name of Contact Person Melissa White, Director of Financial Aid is responsible to upload data to clearinghouse Corrective Action Planned During the audit, it was noted that Tusculum reported the incorrect date to NSLDS for the withdrawal date. Anthology reported the status date instead of the true withdrawal date. Therefore, if a student withdrew on January 1st but the status was not updated until January 4th. The report would pull January 4th instead of the true withdrawal date of January 1st. Tusculum University has since converted back to Colleague which pulls the true withdrawal date versus the status date. Colleague was the system used in the prior to Anthology that correctly reported withdrawal dates. With this conversion back, and the data exporting the true withdrawal date versus the status date, all student withdrawal dates should pull correctly. Anticipated Completion Date The University begun conversion back to Colleague in August 2022. The Majority of conversion from Anthology back to Colleague has been completed for this section to pull correctly as of March 2023.

2022-005 Significant Deficiency: Return to Title IV Funds (U.S. Department of Education, William D. Ford Direct Loan Program, CFDA #84.268; Federal Pell Grant Program, CFDA #84.063; Federal Supplemental Opportunity Grant Program, CFA #84.007; and TEACH Grant Program, CFDA #84.379) Name of Contact Person Melissa White, Director of Financial Aid is responsible for R2T4 calculations. Corrective Action Planned During the audit, it was noted that the University used the incorrect number of total days in the payment period or period of enrollment in calculating the percentage of payment period and/or period of enrollment completed. To correct this measure, Financial Aid has created a two-step measure where the Director of Financial Aid creates the calendar and the Associate Director of Financial Aid checks the calendar. In addition, when performing each R2T4, the Director of Financial Aid shall perform the initial calculation on the R2T4 form found in the student aid handbook. Then, the Associate Director of Financial Aid will also perform the calculation within Colleague independently of the hand done calculation by the Director of Financial Aid. Once finished with the preliminary calculation in Colleague, the Associate Director will then compare the calculation to the hand done calculation on paper by the Director of Financial Aid. If the information matches, then the Associate Director will process the changes in Colleague to the student?s account. If both do not match, both Director and Associate Director will review the calculation a third time and determine where the difference is coming from. Only once both Associate Director and Director of Financial Aid have matching numbers will the account by adjusted by the Associate Director of Financial Aid. Anticipated Completion Date The R2T4 calendar was fixed for fall in fall 2022 and the spring 2023 calendar was fixed in spring 2023.
