Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: In the fall of 2021, the University changed banking relationships. Outstanding checks from the former bank were cancelled and a check was issued from the new bank. The reissuance of checks showed a flaw in our 240-day reconciliation tool which focused on the check date rather than the original disbursement date. This was an isolated issue and we have adjusted our 240-day review tool to calculate based on the original disbursement date.

Corrective Action Plan Finding 2022-001 ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Enrollment Reporting Compliance and Internal Control (Significant Deficiency) University's response: We concur. Name of contact person responsible for corrective action: Linda Albanese, Vice President Enrollment Management Corrective action: In response to the Enrollment Reporting audit finding, Molloy University will continue to check the NSLDS homepage Announcement section multiple times per week for any notice that the Enrollment History Update page is functioning. We are also subscribed to email communications from Compliance & Data Ops Managing Director of the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) and the New York State Financial Aid Administrators (NYSFAAA). The re opening of the Enrollment History page will be announced through any of these venues or by electronic announcement from the Federal Student Aid (FSA) Office of the U.S. Department of Education. While Molloy certification dates are correct in our student information system, Jenzabar, the certification date in the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) prints as MM/DD/YYYY or the current date because the new website is not working properly. This is an NSLDS issue, and the University was advised not to make any changes in the site at this time. As per guidance from FSA, Molloy has retained copies of all announcements as documentation for audit purposes. These electronic announcements highlight the issues relating to the retirement of the old NSLDS website and the launch of the new website. Electronic announcements between June and November 2022 identified enrollment functionality issues. And the update to the November announcement reported the enrollment roster dissemination delay. The latest electronic announcement in January 2023 confirmed that colleges were not able to comply with enrollment reporting requirements. While Molloy continues to monitor all updates regarding the site, the University has also proactively reached out to the NSLDS Customer Service Center. In Case #221208 000270 the reply, dated December 8, 2022, confirmed that the errors reflected in NSLDS were not the fault of Molloy, but rather due to the issues with the NSLDS website. As soon as the suspension of the NSLDS Enrollment History Update functionality is lifted, Molloy will make the necessary updates. Proposed Completion Date: As soon as the suspension of the NSLDS Enrollment History Update functionality is lifted, Molloy University will make the necessary updates.

2022-001 Student Financial Aid Cluster ? Enrollment Reporting ? Various Recommendation: We recommend that each College review their existing procedures and controls and identify necessary changes needed to ensure timely reporting of student status changes to NSLDS as required by regulations. Foothill College Response Explanation of disagreement with finding: There is no disagreement with the finding and the Foothill College will resolve it. Action taken in response to finding: Using the samples from the findings as an example, the Dean of Enrollment Services will contact with National Student Clearinghouse Audit support and request a review of the data received from the College by 3/1/2023. If the issue is with our data, the College with work our technical support team and request a specialist from Ellucian ? Banner that supports the enrollment reporting process. If the issue is merely additional training needed on how to handle the error report file, then additional training will be requested for appropriate Admissions & Records staff for one-on-one training with the National Student Clearinghouse. Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Anthony Cervantes, Dean of Enrollment Services Planned completion date for corrective action plan: April 1, 2023. De Anza College Response Explanation of disagreement with finding: De Anza College has reported all five students in question within 30 days of their status change to the National Clearing House. However, the NCH failed to report to the NSLDS the change of status within 30 days after we correctly reported the change in enrollment. The College has provided proof of our reporting to the NCH, but because the students were not reported by the NCH in a timely manner, we are responsible to take actions to correct this process and make sure that the NCH is reporting on time and with right reports. Action taken in response to finding: The College can see some improvement in numbers of unreported or misreported student records from the NCH to the NSLDS. The Dean of Enrollment Services will continue working with the National Clearing House on the reporting process to avoid discrepancies and delays in the future. Name of the contact person responsible for corrective action: Nazy Galoyan, Dean of Enrollment Services Planned completion date for corrective action plan: June 2023.

2022-002 Student Financial Assistance Cluster ?

Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The University returned the ineligible Pell and Teach funds to ED. The University has implemented new processes, which include, but are not limited to, a second review of all student packages for the aid year.

Prior to awarding TEACH grants, the student package will be checked for the ATS (agreement to serve) and counseling. For continuing students, we will check the cumulative GPA from the prior year to ensure students are meeting the cumulative GPA of 3.25 to receive TEACH for the subsequent award year. Additionally, we have added new TEACH aid components to our student information system (SIS) to include the ATS (agreement to serve) and counseling. Student(s) will not receive any TEACH grant until they have met all three requirements. Lastly, campus based funds will be reviewed once a semester for need, and eligibility requirements.

2022-001 Student Financial Assistance Cluster ?

We also recommend the University review its reporting procedures to ensure all errors are corrected with the appropriate timeframe as required by regulations. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding. The process described in the corrective action plan in response to 2021-001 was developed and implemented in August of 2022. This was after the close of FY22. Therefore, the process had no bearing on the FY22 SFA audit. We believe the effects of the new process will be reflected in the FY23 SFA audit. To recap the corrective action plan from 2021-001: Training with the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) online reporting system was implemented. A consequence of the training was that the Associate Director of Institutional Research (ADIR) acquired the necessary knowledge of how to manually change program enrollment dates in the NSC online system to correspond to the University?s internal records. The ADIR continues to adhere to the master calendar for reporting to ensure timeliness.
