2024-001 – Timeliness of Status Change Reporting. Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. During our testing of thirteen students with status changes, we noted six instances of late reporting of a student's status changes. Three of these instances were winter term graduates whose status change was reported one day late. The other three of these instances were winter term graduates whose status changes had not been reported as of the date of our audit fieldwork, due to a technical glitch in the College's reporting system. Therefore, the NSLDS system is not updated with the student information timely which could lead to a student's grace period being shortened. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College review its reporting procedures to ensure that students' status changes are accurately and timely reported to NSLDS as required by regulators. Corrective Action. The Director of Financial Aid will review the reporting procedures to ensure that students' status changes are accurately and timely reported to NSLDS. The Director of Financial Aid will check NSLDS to ensure timely reporting. Responsible Party. Jean Zimmerman, Director of Financial Aid, and Amy Young, Registrar. Anticipated Completion Date. First Fall 2024 NSC reporting.

The Registrar's Office has performed a further review of its policies and procedures to continue to ensure timely, accurate, and complete submission of enrollment records. The Registrar’s Office has updated its procedures to include response schedules with internal control mechanisms for monitoring compliance with the seven-day response requirement to the Provost’s Office and processing requests for additional assistance as necessary. The updated response schedule includes a goal to respond to error reports within four days of receipt, with final submission no later than six days following notice of the error report, unless the Provost has been notified that enrollment updates have been suspended by National Student Clearinghouse while files are being processed, in which case the Registrar’s Office will monitor and document the processing status until the suspension has been raised. Any response which will exceed six days requires written notice to the Provost’s Office with a plan to complete the required enrollment updates by 5:00pm ET on the seventh day, and any request for additional assistance or resources necessary to do so. Members of the Registrar’s Office also participated in additional training through National Student Clearinghouse with respect to enrollment reporting and error report codes related to enrollment effective dates. Training related to enrollment reporting will be scheduled at least annually through the Registrar’s Office. Finding 2022-005 of the Final Audit Determination (FAD) found that student enrollment status effective dates required further updates following the initial data corrections which were completed in September 2023. In addition to review of its policies and procedures and training, the Registrar’s Office engaged with its third-party servicer for enrollment reporting to review the data reporting systems and integration, as well as the data and information reported by the servicer to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS), during its response to Finding 2022-005. In response to the required action for this finding, the University requested an extension and the extension was granted to complete the required action with the U.S. Department of Education Office of Federal Student Aid (FSA). FSA requested regular status reporting and the University complied with the reporting requirement. The status reporting included updates as to the progress of the review and the University’s methods for reviewing and updating the enrollment reports so that FSA could ensure timely and accurate progress was being achieved throughout the University’s completion of the required action. The University completed the required corrections within the extension timeline of September 30, 2024.
