CHMO Finance and Quality & Compliance departments will continue to work to create procedures and controls that ensure that all SEFA reporting elements required by the Uniform Guidance are adhered to. Standard Operating Procedures (“SOPs”) are currently being created for monthly and quarterly reconciliation between grant reporting and the general ledger to inform the SEFA preparation. Once the SOPs have been developed, they will be reviewed with the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors. Additionally, special consideration will be given to federal expenditures that are recorded separately from general operating expenses in the general ledger such as was the case for the CFDA 14.231 funds utilized for capital improvements in the FY23. Leadership Review: Each quarter, a qualified member of the leadership team will review the SEFA reporting components and a summary of all Government Grant Revenue to confirm we are in compliance with this corrective action. At least once annually, we will ask for a compliance review by our audit firm.

Finding Number: 2023-001 Condition: The College did not timely return the Title IV funds (R2T4) for 3 students. Planned Corrective Action: As outlined in the audit finding, the auditors noted three of the forty R2T4 transactions reviewed (7.5%) were not completed within the required timeframe. We have reviewed these transactions and agree with the auditor’s determination. Given that only three calculations were identified as late, we consider these to be anomalies and not reflective of our overall operating practice. As the auditors state, all three of these transactions were calculated correctly and were all three associated with the Fall term. Since that time, we have instituted new processes to help ensure the timely processing of all R2T4 calculations. These new processes include cross-training of staff to help ensure complete coverage of duties regarding this task. In addition, financial aid staff relating to R2T4 activities have received additional training with a financial aid consultant to help ensure both timeliness and accuracy.

Recommendation: We recommend the College evaluate its policies and procedures for identifying and reporting enrollment status changes to ensure that all changes are reported to NSLDS in a timely manner. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned/taken in response to finding: The College has recently updated their Student Information System (SIS) to a less manual program. Formerly, the College used SONIS, but as of February 2023 has moved to Jenzabar One (J1). The J1 system is more robust than the SONIS system and is interfaced with the Financial Aid Management (FAM) system the College uses – PowerFAIDS. With the capability of the systems communicating with each other, the College can implement real-time internal reconciliation that can quickly identify issues with the dates, amounts, etc. and will allow the departments to work quickly to resolve exceptions found related to compliance of the dates, amounts, etc. Since the change-over to J1, the reconciliation process has been more efficient and has allowed for quick resolution of discrepancies identified. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Daphne Parks, Vice President of Processing at FAS; Stephanie Knight, Director of Enrollment Services & Financial Aid, Beacon College; Carrie Santaw, Registrar, Beacon College Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Completed.

Recommendation: We recommend that the College review their reporting policies and procedures to ensure accurate reporting. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned/taken in response to finding: In Beacon’s previous student billing system (Sonis, in use until February 2023), Beacon had recuring difficulties posting certain transactions to student accounts, causing Financial Aid staff or the Jenzabar program administrator to work behind the scenes to get transactions entered. Since our conversion to Jenzabar J1, we have not encountered these difficulties. Secondly, a schedule of posting transactions to the student accounts has been established depending upon when the transaction is received from Financial Aid. This schedule should ensure that posting of transactions is performed timely and predictably. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Daphne Parks, Vice President of Processing at FAS; Stephanie Knight, Director of Enrollment Services & Financial Aid, Beacon College Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Completed.

NSLDS Reporting Recommendation: We recommend the Institution review its reporting procedures to ensure that students’ program begin dates and program enrollment effective dates are accurately reported to NSLDS as required by regulations. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: 1) The university completed phase one of the corrective action plan with the practice of matching the program begin date to the term date for new students last year. Accuracy is monitored with reports. No repeat findings found on this population of students. The audit recommendation focuses on continuing students. The university is now in the process of completing phase two, continuing students. Existing active programs will be manually updated by the Registrar’s Office; steps for resolution are already in progress. Using reports to capture students, the team will update the student information system, NSLDS, and NSC, correcting the program begin date to match the term date. This process change will align our reporting procedures with required regulations prior to the close of the 2023 fiscal year (July 2024). 2) The Registrar’s team will provide ongoing instruction to all personnel who have access to process program changes in the student information system. The instructions will direct users to match the begin date of the new program with the term; exceptions will be addressed in the communication. Changes will be monitored by the Registrar’s Office with daily reports. Repeat finding, see 2022-003, item 2. CAP phase 2 focuses on continuing students and is still in process, this involves identifying continuing students with mis-matched data and making the appropriate corrections.
