Management?s Response/Corrective Action Plan: The Community Development Department acknowledges that the sporadic nature of drawdowns and their corresponding reports during the audit period has posed challenges in terms of reconciling systems and accurately assessing the financial standing of the City. In response to this matter, the Community Development Department has collaborated closely with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to formulate and implement a uniform set of policies and procedures. These measures have been designed to mitigate the aforementioned issue by mandating a minimum monthly reconciliation between financial reporting systems. Additionally, the establishment of monthly drawdown requirements has been introduced to ensure more consistent and predictable financial operations.

Identifying number: 2022-001 Identification of the federal program: U.S. Department of Education Student Financial Aid Cluster Finding: Uniform Guidance for Student Financial Aid (SFA) Programs {III. Compliance Requirements, N. Special Tests and Provisions, 4. Enrollment Reporting ? Compliance requirements (34 CFR 685.309 (b)(2)(i))} stipulates that unless it expects to submit its next updated enrollment report to the secretary within the next 60 days, the school must notify the Secretary within 30 days after the date the school discovers that a loan under title IV of the Act was made to or on behalf of a student who was enrolled or accepted for enrollment at the school, and the student has ceased to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis or failed to enroll on at least a half-time basis for the period for which the loan was intended. The University did not properly provide to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) notification for one student who withdrew or graduated during FY 2022. Anticipated Completion Date: Action Already Taken Person Responsible: Colin Hilton-MacFarlane, Executive Director of Institutional Research and Effectiveness Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: The Office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness reports graduated students to the National Student Clearinghouse upon degree conferral. The concern about solely relying on a third-party to submit to the National Student Loan Data System was identified in the FY2021 audit with a management response involving reconciling extracts directly from NSLDS to validate that all graduated students were successfully reported (and updating directly within NSLDS for any that failed to be submitted by NSC). The finding in this FY2022 audit occurred prior to the management response and associated business process implementation from the FY2021 audit. The institution remains confident this direct reconciliation within NSLDS will resolve future instances of a lack of timely reporting. This finding also involved a rare case of a student completing a master?s level degree program and immediately enrolling in a subsequent master?s level degree program. The institution believes this uncommon circumstance may have contributed to this specific failure in NSC reporting the graduated status to NSLDS, so although the new business process of reconciliation should prevent the general case of this issue, specific review within NSLDS of students immediately moving from one degree program to another upon graduation will be conducted to ensure no additional mitigations are necessary beyond what has already been implemented to address the general case.

Please note this issue had no impact on the actual calculation of lost revenue nor did it result in a change to amounts recognized. On behalf of the University, Victor Perez, Director of Finance, contacted HRSA officials on September 15, 2021. The purpose of this contact was to receive guidance from HRSA for resolution of the incorrect option selection (option 2 rather than option 3) for the University?s Period 1 and Period 2 submissions. HRSA provided case number 00013184. HRSA informed the University they would not be reopening the portal, but HRSA would inform the University if any action was needed at a later date. We recommend management also contact HRSA to notify them of the inclusion of revenues not attributable to patient care in the budgeted revenues reported in the HRSA portal for Period 2. Further when revising the lost revenues methodology for Period 3 and beyond, the HRSA portal is configured to automatically reset, and the user is prompted to re-enter lost revenues for Periods 1 and 2. As such, management will select option 3 for all future submissions and will ensure that both the budgeted revenues and the actual revenues do not include revenues not attributable to patient care. As of the reporting date of March 31, 2023, no further communication from HRSA has been received by the University. Upon any future receipt of funds from a U.S. government program, management will design and implement an internal control around a secondary review of the most updated HRSA guidance and the subsequent submissions in order to ensure proper review of all elements of the relevant guidance prior to submission to the portal.
