Finding: 2022-002 Enrollment Reporting Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Registrar Corrective Action Plan: The registrar reports enrollment via the National Student Clearinghouse (NSLC). During the period under review there was a technical issue in the submission of the files to the clearinghouse. Goddard’s information technology team created a new submission file format and once that was completed the files were uploaded to the clearinghouse. The registrar will continue to monitor email submission statuses and the information technology team will assist in the event of technical issues. Goddard College is implementing a new student information system that is configured to the clearinghouse enrollment reporting & degree verify standards. The college will be better able to remain compliant and will reduce the chances of technical errors. Additionally, as NSLC makes changes in reporting, the college will also be able to easily make adjustments in the new system. Anticipated Completion Date: Complete

Grantee Response and Corrective Action Plan: We concur with this finding and have implemented measures to mitigate the repetition of additional occurrences. In July 2023, a new policy was implemented that requires employees to record their time as a percentage across all grants in which they work. The employee records this allocation at least weekly within a time keeping software system. Employees and supervisors are now required to review and acknowledge payroll allocations across grants by signing weekly timesheets. Timesheets will be retained and used as backup by the Grants Department when invoicing the Grantor for expense reimbursement. In addition, we have updated our Policy and Procedures Manual to reflect this policy.

The College agrees with the finding and recommendations. The College uses the updated policy and procedure manual to conduct the enrollment reporting. The Office of Registrar was restructured. Two new Registrar Officials were hired in January 2022 and received training from NSLDS. From February 2022 to April 2022 a comprehensive review and update of all students was completed. As of the completion of comprehensive review, the enrollment reporting process has been conducted every thirty days during the first week of the month. In addition to the policies and procedures referenced in last year’s management response, the College has implemented an internal audit to take place every three months to reconcile NSLDS to the Helene Fuld Student record. This process allows the College to identify any discrepancies and update student records timely. The above procedures are now in effect as of January 31, 2022.

Since the fall of 2022, when these incidents occurred, the College has worked regularly with BPS, its financial aid consultant, to make sure all awards are compliant and to provide appropriate training to the College’s financial aid staff. The training is continuous and is being done by both BPS and Ms. Joanna Ojada, who is now the Vice President of Student Services. Last fall, the President centralized all responsibility for financial aid under Ms. Ojada. Ms. Ojada is now responsible for all award compliance. In addition, the College is in the process of purchasing upgraded financial aid modules from Anthology. These modules will automate much of the financial aid processing and reduce the risk of manual error. The College has reached out to the Department of Education to discuss these over awards. The Department has advised the College that the College does not need to return the funds or to open up prior award years. The Department will enforce the loans against the students.
