Finding Reference: 2025-005 - Cash Management (JSU) Responsible Official: Mr. Letherio Zeigler, Executive Director - Student Financial Services & Scholarships (Letherio.h.zeigler@jsums.edu) Corrective Action Planned: During the 2024-2025 award year, there was a change in leadership within the financial aid department near the end of 2024 that disrupted the normal process of reconciliation of funds to be disbursed which caused the delayed drawdowns that were outside the scope of compliance regarding allocation of funds towards student accounts. The Executive has developed a timely process of reconciliation that is in line with federal regulations to ensure that funds will drawdown timely as well as the institution has gone voluntarily to a system with COD in which drawdowns will not occur until COD receives approved response files for Federal Pell grant and Student Loans to ensure there is no delay in drawdowns. Estimated Completion Date: August 1, 2026 Finding Reference: 2025-005 - Cash Management (USM) Responsible Official: Erica Kennedy, Associate Vice President for Research (Erica.kennedy@usm.edu) Corrective Action Planned: USM acknowledges the finding related to cash management timing requirements under 2 CFR §200.305(b). To address the root cause and ensure ongoing compliance, USM will implement the following corrective actions: 1.Maintain standard monthly draw schedule. a.USM has returned to the standard monthly draw schedule, which aligns with the institutional accounting close timeline and supports accurate, reconciled requests. b.This schedule is now designated as the required default for all TRIO drawdowns, and deviations will not be permitted except in documented emergency situations approved at the VP level. 2.Reinforce internal controls linked to monthly draws. a.Existing internal controls, including pre-draw reconciliation, multi-level review, and validation of current/month expenditures, remain in place and are explicitly tied to the monthly schedule. b.Any proposed changes to the draw frequency must undergo formal written approval, including documentation explaining the reason for change and a review of associated compliance risks. 3.Monitoring a.For the next two quarters, the AVPR will conduct spot checks to confirm continued adherence to the monthly schedule and compliance with standard reconciliation procedures. Estimated Completion Date: Corrective actions are completed. The standard monthly draw process was reinstated and fully implemented, effective April 2025.

It was subsequently identified that for a portion of this period the employee was temporarily reassigned to perform substitute teacher duties. Substitute teaching services are not an allowable activity under the federal grant for this position. As a result, a portion of payroll costs were inadvertently charged to the federal program. Corrective Action Taken The school conducted a review of payroll records and staff assignments to determine the time period during which the Instructional Assistant performed substitute duties. The payroll costs associated with that period have been identified and were removed from the federal grant and reclassified to an appropriate non-federal funding source. If applicable, the school will reimburse the federal program for any disallowed costs. Documentation supporting the adjustment and calculations will be maintained for audit and monitoring purposes. Steps to Prevent Recurrence To prevent similar issues in the future and ensure compliance with federal grant requirements, the following procedures will be implemented: School administration will notify the HR and finance office whenever federally funded staff are reassigned to duties outside the scope of the grant. The Payroll and HR administrators will review payroll allocations and staff assignments prior to submitting federal reimbursement requests.Time and effort documentation will be maintained for federally funded personnel to ensure that activities performed align with allowable grant requirements. Administrative and finance staff will be reminded of federal grant compliance expectations related to allowable personnel costs and documentation. Monitoring Process The payroll administrator will conduct periodic internal reviews of payroll allocations and federal reimbursement requests to confirm that personnel costs charged to federal programs align with documented duties and allowable activities. Any discrepancies identified will be corrected prior to submitting reimbursement requests.

FINDING 2025-007 Finding Subject: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies – Special Tests and Provisions – Assessment System Security Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Programs: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies CFDA Numbers: 84.010 Federal Award Numbers and Years (or Other Identifying Numbers): S010A220014, S010A230014, S010A240014 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Special Tests and Provisions – Assessment System Security Audit Findings: Material Weakness, Other Matters Summary of Finding: State educational agencies (SEA), in consultation with local educational agencies (LEA), are required to establish and maintain an assessment security system that is valid, reliable, and consistent with relevant professional and technical standards. Within their assessment system, SEAs must have policies and procedures to maintain test security measures and ensure that LEAs implement those policies and procedures. As such, the Indiana Department of Education created and published the Indiana Assessments Policy Manual. As a part of the assessment security, any individual who administers, handles, or has access to secure test materials at the school or school corporation shall complete assessment training and sign a testing security and integrity statement that remains on file in the appropriate building-level office each year. Each individual required to sign the testing integrity agreement shall sign the form by an established date. The School Corporation had a process to provide assessment system security training and to ensure each employee that attended training signed the agreement indicating training was received. However, there was no process in place to ensure that all school employees required to be trained were trained.

FINDING 2025-006 Finding Subject: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies – Special Tests and Provisions – Annual Report Card, High School Graduation Rate Federal Agency: Department of Education Federal Programs: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies CFDA Numbers: 84.010 Federal Award Numbers and Years (or Other Identifying Numbers): S010A220014, S010A230014, S010A240014 Pass-Through Entity: Indiana Department of Education Compliance Requirement: Special Tests and Provisions – Annual Report Card, High School Graduation Rate Audit Findings: Material Weakness, Other Matters Summary of Finding: The School Corporation is required to report graduation rate data for its public high school using the four-year adjusted cohort rate. To remove a student from the cohort, the School Corporation must confirm the reason for removal in writing. Additionally, required documentation for each removal type must be retained by the School Corporation. The School Corporation did not have effective internal controls to ensure required documentation to support the reason for a student’s removal from the high school graduation cohort for mobility reasons was prepared, reviewed, and retained. Although one person updated the reason for a student’s removal in the Student Information System, and another reviewed the documentation and approved the reason, the control was not sufficient to ensure compliance. Of the seven students tested, the School Corporation provided incorrect supporting documentation to substantiate the removal of two students from the cohort.
