Segregation of Duties (significant deficiency). Auditors’ Recommendation: The Authority should continue to obtain involvement from its Board of Directors in reviewing monthly financial reports and approving expenditures. Grantee Response: The Authority has tried to maintain as much segregation of duties as physically possible and in instances of not being able to achieve such segregation, has implemented detective procedures as recommended by our external auditors. The Authority believes these procedures will reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. The Authority will continue to review how accounting functions are assigned and consider implementing further detective internal control procedures to help mitigate the risk.

The University concurs with this finding. To ensure that we have proper controls in place to monitor the total amounts paid to student trainees on the grant, we are adjusting the process associated with funds disbursement to student trainees. Going forward, an analysis will be prepared for each proposed position to determine whether, consistent with applicable laws, the position may be paid as a stipend or via other payment rather than as an hourly employee, alleviating the need for reporting hours and easing the transition after the student graduates. In addition, staff in the Provost's office and in Finance will provide additional monitoring of grant costs as needed to ensure compliance. Valerie Hardcastle, Vice President and Exec Director, Inst. Health Innovation. To be completed by March 31, 2024.

The Office of the Registrar recognizes the importance of both timely and accurate reporting of enrollment status changes for lenders and servicers of student loans to determine in-school status, deferments, grace periods, and repayment schedules, as well as the federal government’s payment of interest subsidies. Through our own data reporting and, in conjunction with the NSC, we are working to identify the affected students to correct their enrollment record statuses to graduated. We expect to make these corrections no later than January 12, 2024. Individuals with reporting responsibilities will engage in training through the NSC. An office audit will be conducted to assess areas for improvement. These actions will be completed by March 1, 2024. The College recently instituted additional conferral dates where graduated students will be submitted to NSC as batch files, thereby, substantially lessening the need to report as individual online updates.
