Context: For 5 selections, in a sample of 40 payroll transactions, the School Corporation did not have time and effort logs to support the portion of the employees’ time charged to the grant. The employees’ time was split with a non-federal fund; however, the School Corporation did not have support for the allocation of the time charged to the ESSER II and III funds. The sample amount charged to the grant for split-funded employees without time and effort logs was $6,759.

Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. This condition was caused by a lack of detailed review of the Return to Title IV calculation and days used in the Spring 2024 semester. As a result, four students' Return to Title IV calculations were performed using incorrect start dates for the 2024 Spring semester resulting in an understatement in $84 of Pell awards to the students. The College corrected this issue with the Department of Education on July 30, 2024. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College implement a review process to ensure the number of days used in the Return to Title IV calculation is accurate and that the Return to Title IV calculation is being reviewed by a second individual. Corrective Action. The College has performed the necessary steps to correct the error and will develop a process to ensure that a second individual is reviewing the work performed. Responsible Person. Maryann DeCaire, Director of Financial Aid. Anticipated Completion Date. April 30, 2025.

Condition: The College did not timely and accurately complete refund calculations in the Spring. In review of the Spring 2024 calculations the scheduled end date did not consider finals week, resulting in the incorrect days in all Spring 2024 return of Title IV funds calculations. As a result of the incorrect number of days, the amounts of Title IV amounts returned for all withdrawn students were incorrectly calculated for 2 out of the population of 5 (40%) Spring withdrawal calculations as two students had attended over 60% of the semester for both the original and updated calculations and as such, no return was required. A sample of two Fall withdrawal calculations identified one error (50%) due to incorrect inputs for awards that were disbursed and those that could have been disbursed. We consider this finding to be a significant deficiency in relation to Special Tests and Provisions compliance requirement and is a repeat finding shown in Section IV of this report as prior year finding 2023-005. Statistical sampling was not used in making sample selections. Corrective Action Plan: This repeated finding was due to our previously delayed audits. We implemented the plan below on 09/10/2024 after the 2023-05 finding, however, the 2023-24 school year had already completed. This meant we were unable to make changes in the year as it had already concluded, and we implemented the corrective action plan for the 2024-25 school year. 2023-005 Corrective Action Plan: Corrective Action Plan: The Registrar’s Office will review the school calendar in Common Origination and Disbursement Web Site before the financial aid office begins processing R2T4’s for the school year.

Condition: During our testing of thirty-seven student files, we noted ten individuals (27%) that were not properly awarded Direct Loans. Corrective Action Plan: During the month of October 2024, a financial aid consultant met with Cottey staff to discuss and plan better procedures related to awarding and reviewing Federal Loans. Throughout the 2024-25 school year, we have implemented quarterly internal audits where students are randomly selected and processed through an internal review of their federal awards. Through this new process, we are reviewing loan eligibility, disbursement dates, and documentation for each student. By completing this process quarterly, we will be able to do an additional review of each student in detail while the school year is still in session and corrections can be made.

Criteria, Condition, Cause: We concur that our timely reporting of academically dismissed students during the non-required summer term is an issue and will be vigilant to prevent this delayed reporting in the fun1re. It should be noted that this small cohort was all deemed ineligible to return for the upcoming semester on the same day, and so that singular days' enrollment status changes were the only updates that were untimely in the submission to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). We will be modifying and monitoring our process to accurately capture and report to the NSLDS sh1dents determined to be ineligible to return in the fall semester even during a tenn of non-required enrollment. Effect, Questioned costs, Context: Enrollment rosters and updated enrollment statuses are reported regularly with NSLDS to ensure current enrollment status that can impact loan repayment dates and in-school deferments are accurately on record with the Department of Education. For the summer enrollment roster, although Allegheny's summer term is a non-required tern1, students that are not enrolled in the summer tern1, but Allegheny is aware that they will not be enrolled in the upcoming required fall tem1 must be reported as withdrawn through the summer enrollment roster. Recommendation The College will continue to confom1 to the NSLDS reporting process and timeline, and with the collaboration of the Financial Aid's, Registrar's, and Provost's Offices, will fully bring the non-required term enrollment reporting into alignment. For the next non-required summer tern1 enrollment report in 2025, Allegheny will be incorporating the shtdents determined to be academically dismissed from the spring tenn on the initial summer enrollment roster with the updated withdrawn stah1s. The initial summer enrollment roster will be submitted within 60 days.

Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. The College does not have a negotiated rate, however, they used a rate other than the de minimis rate of 10% in their calculation of indirect costs. The College also did not use the modified total direct costs “MTDC” for purposes of this calculation, but instead used the budgeted indirect cost total for the program. As a result of this condition, the College over-charged the grant by $21,765 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College implement a review process to ensure that the indirect costs charged to the grant are in accordance with the grant award letter. Corrective Action. The College will implement a review process to ensure that the indirect costs charged to the grant are in accordance with the grant award letter. Responsible Persons.

Context: During testing of activities allowed and unallowed/allowable costs, it was noted the School Corporation transferred $48,693 from the School Lunch Fund to the JCHS Prepaid Food/Trust Acct to settle negative student balances deemed uncollectible. Outstanding student debt resulting from nonpayment of school meals or milk is an unallowable expenditure to the nonprofit school food service account and cannot be absorbed by the food service program at the end of the school year. It must be paid for with other non-federal sources. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Shannon Current Contact Phone Number: 260-726-9341 Views of Responsible Official: We concur with the finding now that we have more clarifying information. Prior to this audit, we were told we had to use non-federal funds to write off the debt. The published documentation we had was vague as it only stated non-federal funds. With the assistance of our food service company, we were told that catering, adult meals, and al a carte were all non-federal funds. They also had a calculation for figuring out the amount of non-federal funds that we had to make sure it was enough to cover the negative debt. Description of Corrective Action Plan: Moving forward, I will make sure that any negative debt is written off using the operations fund, rainy day, or other approved fund. Anticipated Completion Date: The next time we are required to write off debt. Possibly June 30, 2025.
