Individual Responsible for Corrective Action: Sarah Christoffersen, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action: An incorrect satisfactory academic progress tracking status was assigned to a single student, which resulted in the one student receiving federal aid for the spring semester when they should have been marked as ineligible. The spring disbursement was corrected promptly when uncovered and funds have been returned to ED. An enhanced system is now in place to more clearly track the satisfactory academic progress of students who take a leave of absence from the university and return without demonstrating satisfactory academic progress at a different school. Anticipated Completion Date: 11/1/2024

ESTABLISH INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION AND REVIEW Recommendation: The District should review and approve the proposed auditor adjusting entries and the adequacy of schedule of the expenditures of federal awards disclosures prepared by the auditors and apply analytic procedures to the draft financial statements, among other procedures as considered necessary by management. Action Taken: The District will prepare of schedule of federal expenditures based on expenditure categories as found in the District's general ledger and value of commodities for lunch program. This will be prepared using an excel spreadsheet. The District will review the audit adjustments as presented by the external auditors including those related to the federal expenditures and the related worksheet. We will ensure the adjustments made to federal award expenditures are appropriate by examining the nature and amount of the adjustments. Questionable items will be discussed and agreed upon between the District and the auditors. After review and approval of the entries, they will be input into the District's general ledger and the SEFA spreadsheet will be updated. This will be compared to the SEFA that is included in the audit report and if they are in agreement, this will be approved by management. All variances will be addressed prior to finalization of the audit report and submission to the Nebraska. If the Nebraska Department of Education has questions regarding this plan, please call Dr. Heather Nebesniak at 308.728.5013.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions – The National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) Graduation Status submission calendar will be updated to reflect the necessary reporting timeline and appropriate parties within the Office of the Registrar, Student Financial Services, and Office of Institutional Effectiveness will be held responsible for specific deadlines each month. The report will be completed after verification of graduation requirements and credentialing or other status changes are completed in Colleague by the Registrar's Office. Ellucian Colleague processes will be fully utilized for NSC file generation. The Registrar and Associate Registrar complete different steps in the credentialing process, but will review the student records together to ensure accuracy and timely completion. Submission of graduation status to NSC will occur after each academic term (fall and spring semester, January and summer sessions) and submission of other status changes will occur monthly and follow-ups will occur within four business days.

October 22, 2024 RE: Finding 2024-001 Student Financial Aid Cluster Enrollment Reporting - Clearinghouse for National Student Loan Data (NSLDS) enrollment reporting for the Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 semesters. Student Affair’s response and corrective action plan. Purpose of Student Reporting Student enrollment reporting is critical, as it is sent to the National Student Clearinghouse, which then provides this data to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). This information is used to determine students' enrollment status, which is essential for the administration of financial aid, particularly for calculating grace periods and repayment timelines for student loans. Corrective Actions and Process Changes Once we identified the reporting issue, we re-ran the reports using the previous method, prior to the saved list implementation, to compare the results. We thoroughly reviewed the enrollment numbers for both semesters to ensure all students were correctly reported. In addition, we contacted the National Student Clearinghouse to make the necessary corrections. To ensure this issue is fully resolved moving forward, we have implemented a more rigorous internal process, including thorough testing and random sampling. We now compare reported enrollment data against actual student enrollment for each semester, allowing us to verify that all students are accurately reported. These enhanced measures will safeguard against similar oversights in the future. Challenges with Clearinghouse Resolution While we completed our internal corrections, we experienced significant delays in finalizing the data updates due to customer service challenges on the National Student Clearinghouse’s side. After escalating the issue, we were able to receive assistance from a representative on October 23rd, which we believe will resolve the discrepancies.

The district will add procedures to monitor that additional spending is not being done after the grant is fully spent. In addition, the District will implement controls to ensure approved budget amendments are secured prior to spending. The District will also implement controls to ensure prior year spending is considered for reimbursement requests. The District will work with the grantor agency on any necessary correction of reports and submission of supporting documentation since both grants' reimbursement requests have been fully paid for the total grant amounts.

We thought it was to be reported on the accrual basis to coincide with the Schedule of Federal Expenditures for expenditure incurred in the period of 7/1/2022-6/30/2023. If only expenses up to the amounts received were to be reported for the period, there would be no data related to the ESSER II and ARP grants to report since we had incurred expenses exceeding the cash payments received prior to 6/30/2022. The original reports were reviewed by NYSED during their desk audit and they did not report any issues with it. In the future, we will contact the agency for the reporting instruction clarifications.
