2025-002 - Inaccruate Reporting (repeat). Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. During our review of the submitted quarterly reports, we noted there were errors in the amounts reported. As a result, the College's quarterly ADN-to-BSN reports were prepared incorrectly and were not corrected until the mistakes were identified by MiLEAP's Office of Sixty by 30 or external auditors. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College implement a reconciliation and review process over the preparation and reporting of the ADN-to-BSN quarterly reports to ensure proper and accurate reporting. Corrective Action. The College has performed the necessary steps to correct the error and will correct the amounts reported in the next quarterly report.

2025-001 - Miscalculation of Reconnect Scholarship Awards. Auditor Description of Condition and Effect. For 3 out of 12 students tested, the incorrect amounts of Michigan Reconnect scholarships were calculated and awarded to students. As a result, the College had a total of 16 students whereby the Michigan Reconnect scholarships awarded during the fiscal year were miscalculated, resulting in $16,101 in under-awarded scholarships and $288 in over-awarded scholarships to students. The College corrected under-awarded scholarships by adjusting student accounts to reflect accurate award amounts and issued refunds to students as applicable on March 18, 2026. The college corrected over-awarded scholarships by adjusting the student accounts and updating the Michigan Student Scholarships Grants ("MiSSG") reporting system to refund MiLEAP on August 6, 2025. Auditor Recommendation. We recommend that the College implement a formal review process for Michigan Reconnect scholarship award calculations, ensuring that each calculation receives a second, independent review to verify its accuracy. Corrective Action. The College recalculated the awards for the students impacted, adjusted their student accounts, notified the students of these corrections and returned $288 in over-awarded scholarships to MiLEAP by updating the MiSSG reporting system. Additionally, the College plans to conduct additional training of stafff on the Michigan Reconnect Expansion program, including the last-dollar calculation methodology, and will implement a review of the calculations by a second individual of all disbursements.

FINDING 2025-009 Name of Responsible Individual: Lisa Simon, CPA, CFO, Terri Helt, Senior Accountant, Tracy Jenkins, Student Account Billing Coordinator, & Dylan J. Nowakowski, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action: The University acknowledges the FISAP report was filed with incorrect data and not amended in a timely manner. The University has developed a series of internal controls and procedures to ensure that the data provided for the FISAP will be accurate going forward. Wheeling University worked with ECSI regarding Perkins information. With the Perkins program ending, we realized that we needed to move in the direction of closing out Perkins files/information. ECSI has been updated with the Cash on Hand documents that we have from the Department of Education. The University is currently working with ECSI so that we are able to submit Perkins information/files to the Department of Education. Anticipated Completion Date: June 2026

FINDING 2025-007 Name of Responsible Individual: Lisa Simon, CFO, Terri Helt, Senior Accountant, & Dylan J. Nowakowski, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action: Wheeling University acknowledges that we were not in compliance with the 15-day reporting window for a couple of the students in question. This is due to the fact that the University is on HCM1 and has to do refunds prior to the export to COD. We know this is a finding for multiple departments and internal controls. With that, there was a delay on these two students that were outside the 15-day window. We now have a policy and procedure in place for the HCM1 work flow. Also, have new staff in place to regulate this, so that we always are following the regulations and staying compliant. The procedure is to make sure we do not have this finding again and that we stay in compliance with the Department of Education reporting requirement.

The NetSuite implementation and optimization, overseen by Joan Hayner, Interim Finance and Operation Lead, has been in process throughout 2025, which has allowed for the streamlining of many processes. As of July 2025, the schedule of federal expenditures was automatically produced in NetSuite using expenditure data within the accounting system, rather than being prepared manually. In order to ensure that the SEFA is being produced accurately and completely, the Accounting Manager, who joined the Alliance in April 2025, will become thoroughly familiar with the reporting requirements for the Alliance’s federal awards and work with NetSuite to ensure the data is accurately reflected in the system. As of March 2026, the Alliance is caught up on payments to vendors and their system now has information about the date a program service or item was for and the Alliance is better able to identify what period an expense belongs to.

2025-006 – Internal Control Deficiency in Financial Reporting – Untimely Recording of Grant Program Expenditures Cluster: Not applicable Sponsoring Agency: United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Award Name: USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas Award Number: 7200AA19CA00018, 7200AA21LE00003 Assistance Listing Title: USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas Assistance Listing Number: ALN 98.001 Award Year: 2024-2025 Pass-through entity: Not applicable Compliance Requirement: Schedule of Expenditure of Federal Awards Reporting and Period of Performance On January 1, 2024, the campus converted from the Kuali Financial System (KFS) to the Oracle Cloud financial system (AE). There was a pre-conversion blackout period from mid-November 2023 through January 1, 2024. Additionally, as part of this transition, advance account balances were not initially migrated and were subsequently moved into AE projects. This resulted in changes to how these balances were tracked and processed. Initially, these balances were placed in a single project, and there were delays in processing liquidations until balances could be reconciled and distributed to the individual projects established for each sub awardee. Due to these delays and the pre-conversion blackout period, a backlog of transactions was created. Reconciliations and liquidations were subsequently processed in September 2024. As of September 2024, the process for advance liquidations has been implemented, including distributing balances to the appropriate projects. These procedures are now in place and have been fully implemented through the established process. For inquiries regarding this finding, please contact Mario Reina-Guerra at mreinaguerra@ucdavis.edu.

Finding 2025-003 – Special Test and Provisions – Enrollment Reporting: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Instance of Noncompliance (See table in Management's Corrective Action Plan"). Condition/Context – Out of a population of approximately 1,000 student status changes and 230 permanent address changes, a sample of 74 federal aid recipient students were selected from system generated reports of students who graduated, reported a physical address change, withdrew, or dropped during the 2024-2025 academic year. Auditors believe this to be a representative sample although not a statistical sample. The enrollment information and withdrawal, address change, or graduation date per the University’s records was compared to the information reported to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) in order to determine if status changes were reported within the required timeframes. Corrective Action Plan: The finding has been addressed through staffing changes and scheduled reporting which took effect January 2026. The office of the University Registrar did not previously have a dedicated staff member to submit reports in a timely manner. With the departure of the Associate Registrar in April 2025, the task fell to several staff members to share the responsibility along with their other tasks. The office currently has an assistant registrar as well as a transcript evaluator who share the responsibility and submit reports once every 30 days, with the exception of winter reporting, which is on a different schedule due to breaks. Internal controls have been revised to check conferral dates prior to submitting the enrollment report for the Main Campus. Name of Contact Person: Julie Khella, University Registrar at jkhella@laverne.edu Projected Completion Date: This was corrected as of March 22, 2026

Person responsible: CDBG Administrator 2. Corrective Action Plan: The City of Fremont agrees with the finding and recommendation. To strengthen compliance with FFATA reporting requirements, program staff will provide the subrecipient or contractor with the FFATA reporting notice, including the request for the five most highly compensated officers, at the same time the contract is sent for signature. Aligning these documents will improve tracking, as the subrecipient or contractor will return both the signed contract and the FFATA reporting notice together. Once staff receives the fully executed contract, the FFATA reporting system will be updated promptly. A screenshot showing the date and time of the submission will be retained in the contract file to document timely reporting and ensure continued compliance. 3.

VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS Management reviewed the reporting process and identified that the discrepancy resulted from reliance on PMS drawdown and cash-basis payment activity rather than cumulative accrualbased expenditures recorded in SAP. Internal procedures have been revised to ensure that Line 10.e reflects total cumulative expenditure recorded on an accrual basis, consistent with the accounting records. Implemented or Planned Corrective Measures: 1. Management Action: The interim SF-425 for Grant 02TD0022301 was formally reviewed on February 11, 2026, corrected to properly reflect cumulative expenditures in Line 10.e, and resubmitted through the Payment Management System (PMS). 2. Management Meeting: On February 25, 2026, a formal meeting was held with the Fiscal Team, Program Director, Sub-Director, Budget/Fiscal Analyst, and Fiscal Consultant to review the finding and establish the enhanced corrective plan. 3. Corrective Measure Related to Root Cause: The reporting process has been revised to ensure that all SF-425 reports are prepared using cumulative accrual-based expenditure data directly extracted from SAP, consistent with accrual accounting principles and 2 CFR §200.302(b)(2). This enhancement strengthens internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with 2 CFR §200.303 4. Implementation of a formal reconciliation process between the general ledger (SAP), supporting expenditure reports, and the SF-425 prior to submission. 5. Comprehensive Preventive Review: Management initiated a comprehensive review of all SF-425 reports submitted from July 1, 2025, to the present. This review includes reconciliation of Lines 10.e and 10.f to SAP general ledger data to confirm compliance with accrual-based reporting standards. The review will be completed no later than March 30, 2026. Results will be formally documented in accordance with the Federal Reporting Procedures Manual and presented to the Governing Board at its meeting on March 30, 2026. 6. Structural Improvements Implemented: 1. Budget/Fiscal Analyst formally responsible for extracting cumulative data from SAP, preparing SF-425, and completing standardized reconciliation of Lines 10.e and 10.f. 2. Fiscal Consultant responsible for independent review, validation of compliance with 2 CFR §§200.302 and 200.303, certification, and submission in PMS. 3. Implementation of a standardized reconciliation worksheet. 4. Training for fiscal personnel scheduled for March 5, 2026, covering revised procedures and Uniform Guidance requirements. 7. Governance and Monitoring: • Adoption of the formal Federal Reporting Procedures Manual. • Establishment of an Annual Federal Reporting Calendar reviewed monthly. • Monitoring by the Sub-Director with documentation in fiscal meeting minutes. • Formal presentation of the audit finding and revised procedures to the Governing Board on March 30, 2026. 8. All corrective actions are expected to be fully implemented no later than March 30, 2026. IMPLEMENTATION DATE March 30, 2026 RESPONSIBLE PERSONS Margot Vélez Meléndez, Director of Head Start Program
