Finding number: 2025-001 Federal agency: U.S. Department of Education Programs: Student Financial Assistance Cluster AL #: 84.063 and 84.268 Award year: 2025 Corrective Action Plan: This issue was the result of human error, as established procedures were not followed in which a student withdrawal was not forwarded to the Registrar’s Office, preventing timely reporting to NSLDS. The student’s official withdrawal request was not transmitted by the office responsible for approving student leaves and withdrawals to the Registrar’s Office for processing, resulting in the absence of the required enrollment update in the student information system. In response, the Registrar’s Office has implemented a revised procedure for the handling of late leave requests and will coordinate directly with the Financial Aid Office to ensure accurate updates to the NSLDS. Staff in the Advising Office have been retrained on proper transmission protocols, and both the Registrar’s Office and Advising Office have instituted additional quality control and tracking measures to ensure that all leaves and withdrawals are processed and reported in a timely and compliant manner. Timeline for Implementation of Corrective Action Plan: The corrective action plan was implemented as of October 2025. Contact Person Megan Miller, University Registrar

2025-001 – Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) Reporting Auditor Description of Criteria, Condition, and Effect: Under the requirements of the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, direct recipients of grants or cooperative agreements are required to report first-tier subawards of $30,000 or more to the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Subaward Reporting System (FSRS). Direct recipients must report key data elements by registering through the FSRS and reporting subaward data through that system. Direct recipients that are awarded a federal grant are required to file a FFATA sub-award report by the end of the month following the month in which the prime awardee awards any sub-grant equal to or greater than $30,000. The City did not submit the required key data elements through the FSRS reporting system as required by the Uniform Guidance and as a result has not completed the appropriate sub-award reporting that is required for direct recipients. Auditor Recommendation: We recommend that the City review its procedures for FFATA reporting through FSRS and ensure that all key data elements are reported timely moving forward. Corrective Action: Upon discovery of the issue in November 2025, City staff corrected the noncompliance by submitting the required report to the appropriate reporting system/entity. To prevent recurrence, management has strengthened internal controls over FFATA reporting and Single Audit preparation by (1) adding review and verification steps, (2) communicating expectations with key personnel, and (3) explicitly assigning submission responsibility to a designated submitter who is independent of the individual(s) responsible for monitoring compliance. These control enhancements are expected to identify and prevent similar deficiencies and, based on implementation to date, appear to be operating effectively.

Management takes its responsibility to maintain effective internal control over the federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the agency is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the award seriously and gave significant consideration to what additional controls would be effective to ensure the proper amount of indirect costs are charged to all federal grants. To prevent another occurrence, the organization will: On the final report to HS, the agency refunded the indirect costs that were overbilled in error. Continue its current policy that no individual who prepares bill/draw should review their own calculation of the draw/billing. Another individual will review and approve costs allowable for the draw/billing and recalculate the indirect costs. Continue its current policy that the Director of Grants Management complete a detailed review of each grant reconciliation monthly, to ensure all costs charged to the grant are reasonable and necessary for the performance of the award. This review will include appropriate tests of indirect costs including ensuring the appropriate indirect cost base is used, all items required to be excluded from the indirect cost base are excluded, and the appropriate indirect cost rate is applied to the indirect cost base. Add additional step whereby the monthly grant reconciliations will be reviewed by the Controller or Chief Financial Officer.

Recommendation: We recommend the District continue to enhance and consistently apply R2T4 procedures by providing ongoing training to staff responsible for R2T4 calculations and by continuing with additional reviews and quality control measures to ensure accuracy and compliance. Action taken in response to finding: The District acknowledges the importance of compliance with Return to Title IV (R2T4) requirements. The repeat finding cited in the subsequent audit relates to files processed prior to implementation of the corrective action plan. Since implementation, the District has not identified any new R2T4 errors or compliance issues. Action taken in response to finding: 1. Prior-Year File Remediation • Recalculated R2T4 amounts for affected students. • Returned required funds to the U.S. Department of Education. 2. Oversight and Review Controls • Engaged a NASFAA-certified consultant to review all R2T4 calculations during the 2024–2025 aid year. • Implemented secondary internal review of all R2T4 calculations. 3. Training and Staffing Enhancements • Completed department-wide and R2T4-specific training. • R2T4 staff completed NASFAA R2T4 course series. • An additional Accounting Officer position was added to support R2T4 processing and reconciliation with appropriate system access. 4. Process Improvements • Transitioned to the Department of Education’s R2T4 worksheet in COD. • Established formal coordination with Academic Affairs and the Registrar. • Updated R2T4 training and job aids. 5. Ongoing Monitoring • Management performs periodic internal reviews of R2T4 files. • The District continues to evaluate system and reporting enhancements. Conclusion Although the audit included R2T4 files processed prior to corrective action implementation, the District’s actions have been effective. No new R2T4 issues have been identified since implementation, and controls are in place to ensure ongoing compliance.
