Finding 2024-001 Condition Condition: The change in student status for 25 of the 25 students tested was not reported to the National Student Loan Data Systems (NSLDS) within 30 days or included in a response to a roster file within 60 days. However, these students were ultimately reported to the NSLDS. Corrective Action Plan The Director of Student Financial Services and the Registrar resolved the issue that caused delayed enrollment changes being submitted to NSLDS due to turnover. The Office of the Registrar identified the errors in the National Student Clearinghouse reporting. They worked internally with our IT department to pinpoint the errors resulting in delays in submission to the National Student Loan Database Systems (NSLDS) via the National Student Clearinghouse. The Office of the Registrar submitted overdue files to the National Clearinghouse in conjunction with the Senior Director of Information Technology to ensure all technical requirements are met. These updates and alignments should bring late reporting to zero. As of January 2025, all prior term file submissions have been submitted to the National Student Clearinghouse.

2024-002 REPORTING - SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY Condition During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Center submitted a report for the funds used during the year ended June 30, 2023. The report submitted by the Center contained expenditure amounts that did not agree to the final amounts reported on the schedule of expenditures of federal awards for the year ended June 30, 2023. Recommendation We recommend the Center continue updating its reporting procedures to use the most accurate information possible. In addition, the report should also be reviewed by an individual separate from the person compiling the information. Management Response The grant noted in the finding has since been finalized and a final Expenditure Report has been submitted to the State reflecting the correct total dollars spent. All grants will be tracked within the funding sources provided by the Pennsylvania Department of Education within the general ledger. Grant reporting will be reviewed along with the applicable support by the executive director or another party before being submitted.

Audit Finding 2024-1: During the audit it was noted that certain general ledger accounts were not analyzed and reconciled on a timely basis. Management Response: The Center continued to experience turnover in some key accounting positions. Additionally, there were new programs with new software updates that staff needed to get familiar with.

Management continues to train existing employees on significant accounting issues and recent Medicaid Renewals will ensure that material general ledger accounts are reconciled monthly.
