2025-002 SEFA Presentation Error – Prior Year Criteria: Uniform Guidance (2 CFR §200.510(b)) requires that the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) accurately present all federal awards, including the correct identifying numbers assigned by pass-through entities for each award. Accurate reporting is essential to ensure compliance with funding requirements and enable proper tracking and monitoring of federal awards. Client’s Response: Last year was the organization’s first time going through a Single Audit. Although the organization accurately tracked expenditures corresponding to the grant award, the transactions were charged to an unrestricted program. The correction was detected and corrected during this fiscal year. We have implemented the necessary internal controls to ensure that our grant reporting accurately reflects the expenditures for each of our respective grants.

2025-001 Costs Incurred Beyond the Period of Performance Criteria: According to 2 CFR §§200.1, 200.308, 200.309, 200.344, and 200.403(h), a non-Federal entity may only charge allowable costs incurred during the approved budget period of the Federal award’s period of performance, and any costs incurred before the Federal award was made that were authorized by the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity. All financial obligations incurred under the Federal award must be liquidated within the required time period. Costs incurred outside the approved period of performance are unallowable and constitute questioned costs. Client’s Response: During the grant cycle, the Organization submitted for an extension but did not receive confirmation of said extension. During the current fiscal year, the Organization has implemented additional controls to ensure that all grant funding is expended within the timeframe allotted. Proposed Implementation Date – 12/31/2025 Name of Contact Person – John Edwards, Sr. Email: jledwards@umadaop.org Phone: 419-255-4444

HHC recognizes that during the fiscal year ended 3/31/2025, we were deficient in meeting the timely filing requirement for FFR reports. HHC established a new process in August 2025, whereby the Controller will review the Payment Management System on a bi-weekly basis, but not less frequently than monthly, to identify the deadline for all required Federal Grant reports, including but not limited to FFR reports. The Controller will notify all appropriate individuals of any reports that require attention to meet the reporting deadlines and will be responsible for the timely completion of all such required reporting.

Response: According to the student sampling conducted as part of the audit, several withdrawal records were reported incorrectly. The source of the inconsistencies was unknown at the time of notification by the auditors. However, progress had been made since the 2023-24 audit when little to no withdrawal records were being reported correctly. The purpose of this report submitted to NSLDS through NSC, is to notify lenders of students who have dropped below half time status and therefore should be entering their six month grace period prior to loan repayment. All students are included in the withdrawal report, regardless of whether they have a loan with Vernon College or any other institution. It is important to note, internal records are accurate and loan processes are in compliance. Vernon College is pleased to report that recently the Registrar’s Office has discovered the source of the withdrawal reporting errors and has implemented a solution. The source and subsequent solution involve entering certain dates in designated areas in our student information system, Colleague. If errors occur in the future, the Registrar’s Office has developed a backup manual review process to use to ensure reporting will remain consistent and correct. The Registrar’s Office will run an “Enrollment Activity Report” to identify all course withdrawals within a designated time period as outlined by the NSC First of Term and Subsequent Term reports. The reporting official will then audit the Colleague produced NSC report against the Enrollment Activity Report to ensure accuracy and update manually as needed. This will occur prior to submission to the NSC/NSLDS. Moving forward, the manual process will only be used if needed.

Auditor Description of Condition and Effect: During testing, we identified 1 instance out of 40 disbursement selections tested in which the District was unable to provide supporting documentation for charges incurred under the grant. Additionally, we noted 15 instances out of 40 selections tested where the District could not provide evidence of review and approval for grant expenditures. Finally, we identified 3 instances out of 40 selections tested where the hours reported on timesheets did not agree with the hours charged to the grant. The District’s failure to maintain supporting documentation for certain grant expenditures, provide evidence of review and approval, and accurately report time charged to the grant increases the risk of noncompliance with federal requirements under 2 CFR Part 200. These deficiencies create an increased risk of questioned costs which could ultimately lead to disallowed costs and the potential repayment of grant funds to the granting agency. Additionally, inaccurate reporting and weak internal controls diminish the reliability of financial information submitted to the grantor, reduce accountability, and heighten the risk of errors or fraudulent activity. Auditor Recommendation: We recommend that the District review its written policies and procedures over federal awards to ensure that controls are in place that will require that all expenditures for either payroll or disbursements have the appropriate documentation and evidence of review and approval prior to payment. Corrective Action: The District will review its written policies and procedures over federal awards to ensure that all expenditures have the appropriate documentation and evidence of review and approval prior to payment.

This Repeat Finding has been acknowledged. Union has taken several steps towards making the required changes to ensure compliance with our enrollment reporting responsibilities. This includes implementing process improvements related to our National Clearing House (NSC) submissions and reviewing our academic policies related to academic leaves of absence and withdrawals. Timeliness of Enrollment Reporting Rosters: As of January 2024, Union completed the setup and configuration of our enrollment reporting services with NSC as our third-party service provider. The new process is administered by the school Registrar, with back-up responsibilities handled by the Assistant Dean, Director of Financial Aid, and the Vice President of Admissions and Views of Responsible Officials: This Repeat Finding has been acknowledged. Union’s Academic Office is in the late stages of implementing a multi-year action plan to implement the required system, policy, and procedural changes to ensure compliance with all enrollment reporting regulations. As of January 2024, Union completed our migration to the National Clearinghouse (NSC) as our third service provider for enrollment reporting services. We have already experienced a strong positive impact on the timeliness of our enrollment reporting. For example, we have fully addressed the timeliness of our NSLDS Roster response, which is due within 15 days. This year’s testing sample yielded zero (0) errors, demonstrating our ability to successfully address enrollment reporting issues. The steps outlined below will allow us to address the enrollment reporting issue identified in this year’s testing sample. Earlier this academic year, Union revised both our Academic Leave of Absence and Term Withdrawal policies to ensure alignment with our compliance obligations. Due to these changes, Union has already noted a reduction in reporting errors and inconsistencies. The FY25 Single Audit finding is related to the reporting of withdrawal/dismissal actions that took place in summer, a non-required term for students in our programs. Our corrective action will be to: (1) further modify our policies and procedures to specifically address non-required and interim terms; and (2) increase the number of batch enrollment updates to NSC/NSLDS during non-required terms to ensure that all summer withdrawals are communicated within 60 days.

Corrective Action Plan Finding 2025-001 Federal Award Finding: Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance, Material Noncompliance – Reporting Name of Contact Person Kimberly Carlo, Executive Director Corrective Action In this case it was noted that our Organization did not perform reconciliation procedures between the federal program reporting of direct client expenditures with our financial accounting records. Not performing this reconciliation lead to an unreconciled difference when determining whether the data was complete and accurate. We have thoroughly reviewed our internal procedures, identified weaknesses and implemented changes to assure this will never happen again. To prevent and detect such errors in the future, we have changed our internal procedures to include: Project files that are being closed and reported to the grantor are being reviewed on a monthly basis. During the review, project files will be verified that the funding sources used for expenditures reconcile with the funding sources used for payment as recorded in the financial accounting records. Any differences will be reconciled at this point and such documentation will be retained. Additionally, an annual reconciliation of all population data used for program expenditures will be reconciled with our financial accounting records. To prevent and detect such errors in the future, we have changed our internal procedures to include: 1. Each material list along with measures and funding sources will be printed for the client file for direct material and labor charges. 2. The financial coordinator will verify funding sources match with amounts reported in the financial accounting records. 3. Any changes to funding for material and labor will be printed for the client file and given to the financial coordinator to change funding sources in the IWI accounting system. 4. Once funding is changed, verification will be printed for the client file. 5. An annual reconciliation of client program expenditures will be reconciled with our revenue and expenditure report for each funding source. Implementation Immediate.
