Finding #2025-002 -Material Audit Adjustments (Prior Year Finding #2024-002) Condition: The audit proposed adjusting journal entries during the audit process to adjust District account balances. We deem these entries to be significant in relation to the financial statements. Since the District did not make these adjustments in its accounting system prior to the audit, a material weakness was determined to exist in the District's internal controls. Effect: Financial reports generated by the accounting system may not provide an accurate reflection of the District's financial position or activities. Cause: Financial information was not recorded in a timely manner and numerous adjustments were needed in order to correct account balances. Criteria: Material adjusting journal entries not prepared by the District before the audit are considered an internal control weakness. Recommendation: Policies and procedures should be implemented to ensure account balances are properly recorded in a timely manner. Response: The District will establish policies and procedures to reduce the number of adjusting journal entries proposed by the auditor in future years.

Student Financial Aid Cluster – Assistance Listing No. Various Recommendation: We recommend the University review its reporting procedures to ensure that students’ statuses are accurately and timely reported to NSLDS as required by regulations. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: In response to these challenges, the University initiated corrective actions beginning in Summer 2025. 1. Dedicated Technical Resources: We have been assigned dedicated ITS staff members (managed by Dynamic Campus) specifically to the resolution of enrollment and graduation submission and compilation logic. 2. Submission Scheduling: A rigid schedule for monthly enrollment and graduation submissions has been established for both Branch 00 and Branch 76. 3. Staffing: An additional Registrar’s Office staff member has been shifted to assist with the NSC process, specifically focusing on the remediation of error reports. 4. Policy Revision: We have simplified the degree conferral policy to improve the accuracy of graduation reporting. We are also working to align end of term grade submission deadlines to allow for timely end of term processing and degree conferrals. This in turn will aid in more timely submissions especially as it affects graduation reporting. 5. Data Mapping: The Registrar’s Office has collaborated with ITS to audit the specific fields and tables used to generate Clearinghouse reports. This addresses the complexity of reporting on two branches involving multiple term codes. 6. Automation: We have implemented a timely and automated submission schedule. 7. Change Management Protocols: A protocol is being implemented to prevent ITS system upgrades or network maintenance during scheduled reporting windows. 8. Data Reconciliation: We will implement a strict monitoring of Clearinghouse records regarding graduation and withdrawal dates, reconciling them against the Student Information System (SIS) and NSLDS data. That will occur once we can gain NSLDS access for the two staff members. Discrepancies will be corrected immediately. Special attention will be paid to conferral dates since they may not align with the final day of the term or sub-term. 9. Cross-Departmental Alignment: We will continue regular consultations with the Financial Aid Office regarding complex registration changes to ensure consistent interpretation and reporting. 10. Ongoing Training: Staff will continue to utilize training opportunities provided by the Clearinghouse, Banner, and other relevant bodies.

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY CDFI Equitable Recovery Program (CDFI ERP) – Assistance Listing No. 21.033 Recommendation: We recommend that the Credit Union strengthen its internal controls by implementing procedures for transaction-level tracking of federal grant expenditures, maintaining contemporaneous documentation to support allowability, training staff on federal compliance requirements, and conducting periodic internal reviews to ensure documentation standards are consistently met. These actions will help address the lack of support noted in the original SEFA and ensure future submissions are fully auditable and compliant.

Finding # 2025-001 Type: Material weakness over allowable costs Type: Immaterial noncompliance over allowable costs Assisting Listing Number: 43.001 Federal Agency: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Name of Federal Program: Science Finding: One individual computes the indirect charges and prepares the drawdown requests without a secondary review by a senior member of management. Two out of forty expenses tested were completed by one individual with no review. Three out of four cash draws tested were submitted with no secondary review. Immaterial errors were noted in amounts charged for indirect costs. Recommendation: Management should establish a consistent procedure to ensure indirect rate calculations and monthly billings are reviewed prior to submission. Corrective Action: As a result of administrative disruption caused by a transition in the Chief Financial Officer role, we were required to catch up as quickly as possible. During this catch-up period, normal review processes were not fully in place due to the noted staff transitions. This was a one-time situation and has since been remedied through the implementation of formalized policies and procedures governing the preparation, review, and timely submission of federal reports. We have transitioned to an accounting software that limits the ability for indirect rate calculations to be completed by one individual. Monthly draw requests will be completed by the Finance Director during month-end close and submitted to the Chief Financial Officer for review prior to submission.

Description of Corrective Action Plan: To ensure compliance with the requirements related to the grant agreement and the Special Test and Provisions Annual Report Card, High School Graduation rate compliance, the School City of Hammond will put into place an effective internal control system. The School City of Hammond will maintain an effective control system for withdrawals from each of the schools within the school system. At the time of withdrawal, a withdrawal form, along with a verified ID will be copied by the school’s registrar or designee. This withdrawal form must include the signatures of a parent and principal. This is the first step in the monitoring process. This system for withdrawals will also include placing a copy of the withdrawal form in the student information system (PowerSchool Attachments). The documentation that needs to be attached to the withdrawal form should include documents that show a Records Request, proof that the student withdrew to attend another school or educational program that results in the awarding of a high school diploma, has immigrated to another country, or is deceased. Upon completion of the withdrawal at the school, a copy of the documentation will be kept at the school, and the original documentation will be placed into the cumulative record. The school will forward a digital copy to Student Services. Upon receipt of the digital copy at Student Services, the administrator will review the file and will sign off to indicate that the record has been reviewed and is complete. To ensure this process is implemented with fidelity, training will take place on a yearly basis with administrators and office staff on the procedures that need to be followed during the withdrawal process.

LBUCC utilized timesheets that reflect the allocations as its time and effort documentation. Recommendation: We recommend that LBUCC implement a time and effort reporting system that tracks actual hours worked on each program or grant. We recommend that they require supervisors to review and approve the actual time spent on grant activities and that such review and approval be documented. Action Taken: LBUCC will implement a time and effort reporting system to include a semi-annual certification for all employees funded by the HRSA 330 grant and a time card reporting system for those funded by multiple grants. Effectivity Date: Time and effort reporting will be implemented in January 2026 and fully in place by 1/31/2026

Additionally, we could not ascertain if the sliding fee discount provided to certain eligible patients were correct as LBUCC did not maintain documentation of the proof of income of those eligible patients. Recommendation: We recommend that LBUCC conduct training of all of its personnel who are involved in determining and applying the sliding fee scale of patients. We also recommend LBUCC to maintain complete and auditable documentation supporting each patient's eligibility for sliding fee discount.

Effectivity Date: Training was held on October 28, 2025, and the tool to assist them was reviewed and provided at that time and implemented immediately thereafter.
