Recommendation: We recommend the University evaluate its procedures and a policy around how level of education is determined and verified when packaging and awarding students. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Marymount University experienced high turnover in the Office of Financial Aid from the Director down to the counselor position in the 22-23 academic year. In that transition, Attain partners was contracted in late 2022 as interim staffing. For the one student in the finding that was found to have received a grade level 3 loan instead of level 2 based on the number of credits completed, research found that a rule setting in Ellucian Colleague caused the student to be auto-packaged at level 3 and it was accepted and disbursed in COD (Common Origination & Disbursement). Moving forward, Attain Partners will work with Marymount IT to update any rule settings to catch this issue and provide the Marymount Financial Aid office with internal controls that will catch any issues for the current aid year. Management notes that this issue arose due to a software programming error tied to an updated rule setting in Ellucian Colleague. Moving forward staff in Financial Aid will work in tandem with colleagues in Information Technology to review all updated rule setting in order to catch and address potential miscalculations. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Meghan Sutton, Interim Director of Financial Aid, 703.284.1532 Planned completion date for corrective action plan: May 2024

Finding 2023-002 – Significant Deficiency Assistance List Number: 97.039 – Hazzard Mitigation Grant Pass-through Agency: California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, FEMA-4344-DR-CA. Compliance Requirement: Reporting. Condition: The District did not provide project closeout materials to the pass-through agency within 90 days of the end of the period of performance so the pass-through agency could prepare the closeout reporting within 120 days of the end of the period of performance. Criteria: The Notice of Funding Opportunity indicates: “In addition, pass-through entities are responsible for closing out their subawards as described in 2 C.F.R. § 200.344; subrecipients are still required to submit closeout materials within 90 calendar days of the period of performance end date. When a subrecipient completes all closeout requirements, pass-through entities must promptly complete all closeout actions for subawards in time for the recipient to submit all necessary documentation and information to FEMA during the closeout of the prime award.” Cause: The District’s staff were waiting for a requested extension for the period of performance from the pass-through agency and assumed the closeout reporting would not be necessary. Effect: The District is not in compliance with the terms and conditions of the federal award. Recommendation: We understand the District provided the information necessary to complete the closeout reporting to the pass-through agency on November 30, 2023. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: As indicated in the recommendation, the District provided the information necessary to complete the closeout reporting to the pass-through agency on November 30, 2023. Furthermore, on March 22, 2024, the District heard from the pass-through agency that FEMA received the requested extension, and it is in the queue for final approval and signature. The corrective action has been completed.

Condition: For a sample of tenants selected in conjunction with eligibility testing, the Commission did not correctly calculate family income composition, and did not retain required documentation supporting eligibility determinations. Planned Corrective Action: The Commission is implementing a plan to audit internally 100 percent of all tenant files in our Low Income Public Housing (LIPH) program. This plan involves both the use of experienced employees and an outside consultant.

In addition, an additional level of review will be put in place to assist in catching any inconsistencies. The Commission has added additional employees to the LIPH program, which include an operations manager and a staff person.

Audit Finding Reference: 2023-001 Improve Controls Over Reporting Planned Corrective Action: 1. Request a list from DHHS of definitions of income types by program in the Quarterly Reports. Ensure that this list provides clarity on how to report income that is not explicitly tied to a single program. 2. Review AFY23 and AFY24-to-date reports against these criteria (once received), and re-submit any reports which may need to be modified to comply with the guidance. 3. Going forward, the Quarterly Reports will be generated differently. The Client Services Manager will prepare actuals by program for number of clients and units. The Director of Administration will prepare actuals by program for income and expense. The Executive Director will compile the final report, which will not be submitted until both the Client Services Manager and Director of Administration have both checked the reports and electronically signed them. In the absence of specific guidance from DHHS to the contrary, any non-program-specific income will be allocated to programs by share of service units delivered.
