Contact Person: Ron Dempsey, Controller Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: Management concurs with the finding. The College experienced some turnover during the year. The new director was unaware that the Cost of Attendance was not being updated when a change in the award was submitted COD due to a change in the student’s schedule. The director is now aware that these changes must be updated manually in COD and has implemented procedures to ensure that the COA is reviewed whenever a revision to the student award is submitted to COD. The college will also confer with the software vendor to determine if any settings in the student information need to be corrected for this update to be automated. The new director of financial aid has been through substantial training in the last six months to better understand how the college’s software communicates with COD and has implemented procedures to ensure the timely submission of disbursements to COD after the disbursements have been made in the student information system. Anticipated Completion Date: Prior records with issues were corrected on September 1, 2025 and ongoing monitoring is taking place

Improper Time & Effort Reporting Condition: 2 CFR 200.430 of the Uniform Guidance mandates that personnel compensation charged to federal awards must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed. When an employee works on multiple cost objectives (e.g., multiple awards or activities), this often necessitates the use of personnel activity reports or similar timekeeping documents to accurately allocate salaries and wages. During the audit, we found that proper personnel activity reports were not being maintained for multiple cost objective employees charged to Title IV and to the Special Education Cluster. While we were able to support that the amounts charged to the grants were reasonable, through review of the employee's Outlook calendars, daily schedules, etc., the documentation required by federal guidance was not available. We recommend that management provide training to all multiple cost objective employees on how to properly document their time and then to Implement oversite procedures requiring that those personnel activity reports be submitted to management for review on a monthly basis. Corrective Action: The District has begun training all staff and grant Directors on the proper documentation required to properly support the time and effort employees spend on various grants. In addition, the Grant Director will begin reviewing this documentation on a periodic basis, to ensure complete compliance. Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Chanda Cleaves, Executive Director of Finance Completion Date: This issue will be corrected moving forward.

Condition: During our review of the return of Title IV funds, we noted that there were 4 students in the fall that were reported late. Criteria: When a recipient of Title IV funds withdraws from an institution during a payment period or period of enrollment in which the recipient began attendance, the institution must perform a Return of Title IV Funds calculation to determine the amount of Title IV assistance the student earned as of the student’s withdrawal date. Cause: Student Financial Aid personnel did not have the fall end of term submission set timely. Effect: Funds required to be sent back to the Department of Education are late. Perspective: Significant personnel changes were made at the end of the June 30, 2024 year and the fall term was the first time submitting the end of term report. Spring submissions were all timely. Recommendation: We recommend training of Student Financial Aid personnel on the rules and regulations over return of funds. In addition, we recommend that submissions dates are pre-determined and verified that they will be timely. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Dodge City Community College staff involved are undergoing training to learn requirements. Processes and procedures have been developed to ensure timely calculations and refunds. In addition, they have changed submission dates to avoid issues in the future.

Condition: We examined a sample of Title IV aid recipients to verify that information reported on the Enrollment Reporting roster file sent to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) matched the student's academic files and found instances where students received Title IV aid during a semester but the status of withdrawn or graduate were not reported timely on the NSLDS Enrollment Reporting roster files sent during that semester. Criteria: Per the NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide, a school should report all students that NSLDS includes in its request to the school on a roster file. This includes timely and accurate reporting of the status of the student of withdrawn or graduate. Cause: The status of the students were not timely reported to NSLDS. Effect: Students could potentially not be placed in grace or repayment status when they should be. Perspective: All withdrawn students tested were reported accurately, but there were a few fall students that were not submitted timely. Spring students tested were timely. The new Director came on in at the end of the June 30, 2024 year and worked to correct the reporting. The fall period was the first time through the submission, but by Spring, no issues remained. Recommendation: The College has moved up the initial reporting date after semester the semester ends to correct the timeliness issue. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Dodge City Community College staff involved in enrollment reporting to the NSLDS agree with this finding and have already taken steps to ensure timely reporting in the future.

Finding – Special Tests and Provisions: Enrollment Reporting – Federal Direct Student Loan Program, Assistance Listing Number 84.268; June 30, 2025 Award Year; U.S. Department of Education Criteria or Specific Requirement Enrollment information, including the effective date of separation from the institution, must be accurately reported within 30 days whenever attendance changes for a student, unless a roster will be submitted within 60 days. The changes include reductions or increases in attendance levels, withdrawals, graduations, and approved leaves of absence. It is the institution’s responsibility, as a participant in the Title IV aid programs, to monitor and report these changes to the National Student Loan Data System (“NSLDS”). (NSLDS Enrollment Reporting Guide November 2022 and 34 CFR 682.610) Condition Found Of the 16 students selected for enrollment reporting testing, seven students within the sample were reported to NSLDS outside the maximum 60-day window. This was not a statistically valid sample. Upon further inquiry, there were an additional 206 students included in the same batch reported to NSLDS that were not reported timely. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions NELB is revising the use of the customized report to more accurately reflect student records and will leverage the student information system, Jenzabar, to produce enrollment reports. The Office of the Registrar, the Office of the Controller, and Office of Financial Aid will review the file for NELB graduates in the month of May and ensure 100% compliance with graduating reporting after submission. As part of the NELB year-end closing procedures, there will be an additional review in the month of June every year to ensure that the file of NELB graduates provided to the National Student Loan Data System is consistent and accurate. This year-end closing procedure will be initiated by the NELB Chief Financial Officer and will coordinate with the Office of Financial Aid, Office of the Registrar and the Controller’s Office. Names of Contact Persons Responsible for Corrective Action: Office of Financial Aid (Jenny Aquiar), Office of the Registrar (Max Brodsky) and the Controller’s Office (Sean Bendall).

Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. Various Recommendation: We recommend the University enhance system controls to ensure disbursements match awards. View of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The Financial Aid Office normally attempts to disburse aid within the term for which it is designated. However, unusual workloads brought about by FAFSA disruptions, staffing reductions, and duty changes led to delays in the disbursement of some aid for the 2024-2025 school year. A significant amount of Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 aid was not disbursed until August and September 2025. While this does not fall outside of rules set by the Department of Education, later disbursements caused extra challenges for the Accounting Team and meant a delay in receiving federal funds into the organization. As of September 30, 2025, All Pell Grant and Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant Funds for 2024-2025 were been dispersed — and the matching amounts have been certified by the Department of Education. All federal loans for 2024-2025 have been dispersed, with the exception of 11 students. Nine of the students still have not accepted or declined their loans. They have been given until October 15, or the loans will be rescinded. Two more students had errors that stopped disbursement. This issue is being resolved by the team within the next week. Actions taken to resolve the issue: The Financial Aid team is taking the following actions to ensure that financial aid is disbursed in the term it is awarded. (Note: there are always a few exceptions due to highly unusual circumstances.) • Restructuring the awarding process to disperse funds soon after Census Date, before manually checking each record for anomalies. In 2024-2025, the manual checking process was completed first, which dramatically delayed disbursement. • Restructuring duties to spread out the awarding processing among more than one team member to allow for it to be completed more quickly. • Reviewing and enhancing financial aid policies governing the awarding and disbursing process to ensure that the amounts match at the end of the fiscal year (May 31) for spring and fall terms, and at the end of the award year (August 1) for the summer term. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Tricia Harris, Financial Aid Director Planned completion date for corrective action plan: The Financial Aid Office has already begun implementation of this action plan and will complete implementation before the end of the current school term.

Recommendation: We recommend the University implements procedures moving forward to ensure that all necessary MPN's are retained in accordance with the Perkins recordkeeping regulations. View of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The process Union Adventist University follows to ensure promissory notes are signed is coordinated through Financial Aid. Financial Aid determines eligibility of awards and adds them to the student financial package. Once a loan has been accepted, Financial Aid has the student sign the promissory note. The loan is disbursed once the paperwork has been completed and reviewed. Perkins loans followed this procedure in the time they were available. The Perkins program is no longer active so there are no new promissory notes going forward. Student accounts is currently reviewing student files to ensure promissory notes, or documentation deemed appropriate by the Department of Education, are available for the Perkins loans that will be assigned to the Department of Education. Unfortunately, previous employees did not keep accurate records; this was brought to light when a new employee took over student accounts in August 2021. While the new employee has worked hard to track down all MPNs, we know that there are some that will never be found. As a result, this will likely be a repeat finding until all Perkins Loans are assigned or liquidated. It is our hope that this process will be completed by May 31, 2027. Promissory notes or documentation will be retained until the loans are either assigned or liquidated. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Brandie Kolff van Oosterwyk, Controller Planned completion date for corrective action plan: We hope to assign or liquidate all Perkins loans by May 31, 2027. Until then, it is likely that this will be a recurring item on our corrective action report.

Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. Various Recommendation: We recommend the University reevaluate its procedures and review policies surrounding reporting status changes to NSLDS to put a process in place to ensure the enrollment effective date reported to NSLDS on the campus and program level is aligning with the University. View of responsible officials: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The Records Office at Union Adventist University submits an enrollment report to the National Student Clearinghouse every 30 days to ensure that the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) receives the most accurate and up-to-date information. If any errors are identified, the Clearinghouse returns them to the university for correction. The Records Office reviews all error reports and resolves any issues. To ensure that accurate enrollment data is reported to NSLDS within the required effective dates, Union Adventist University will review and resolve the errors within 3-5 business days.

2025-001: Late Return of Title IV Financial Aid - Student Financial Aid Cluster - Assistance Listing #s 84.007, 84.033, 84.063, 84.268 - Grant Period - Year Ended June 30, 2025 Condition Found During our Return of Title IV Fund testing, we noted that the College did not calculate or return Title IV Student Financial Aid for one out of twenty-five students tested until after 45 days when the student ceased attendance. We consider the untimely calculation and Return of Title IV Student Financial Aid to be an instance of noncompliance relating to the Special Tests and Provisions Compliance Requirement. This is a repeat finding of prior year finding 2024-001. Corrective Action Plan We have done two things to help us process R2T4s within the required timeframe. First, we added a column to our initial withdrawal report that calculates when the 30-day limit will be for each student. This helps keep us on track for the 30-day deadline for when we must perfom the R2T4 calculation. This report was implemented in June 2025. Secondly, we created a new report called the ROF Transmittal Report. This weekly report shows us all students that have had an R2T4 done in Colleague for the current semester and it compares their awarded amount to their transmitted amount. This helps us identify students whose aid has not been disbursed within a week of the R2T4 calculation being performed. This report also promotes transparency and communication between the Financial Aid office and the Accounting Office in our respective parts of the R2T4 process. This report was implemented in February 2025. Responsible Person for Corrective Action Plan Kendra Souligne Implementation Date of Corrective Action Plan June 2025

Inaccurate and Untimely Returns of Title IV Funds (R2T4) Planned Corrective Action: The R2T4 findings were applicable to online students who may have stopped attending but neglected to initiate the withdrawal process. The students were assigned failing grades but were considered unofficial withdrawals. The financial aid office will review failing grades at the end of each module more closely by comparing the attendance record in the SIS (Campus Cafe) with the relevant online course sites (Moodle) to ensure the last date of attendance corresponds to the last activity date from the course site. In addition, the financial aid office will consult with the academic departments to ensure attendance records are properly entered on both the SIS and online course platforms. The financial aid office will work with our third-party servicer, FA Solutions, to process R2T4s for any online student with failing grade who attended less than 60% of a module or modules, unless the student meets other conditions that exempt them from the R2T4 calculation.

Statistical Sampling was not used in making sample selections. Responsible Persons: Andra Butler and Jessica Justice Corrective Action Plan: Management agrees with the finding. Management has already implemented corrective actions to ensure that credit balances caused by federal funds are refunded prior to those federal funds being requested by the University. Financial Aid notifies the Business Office when all postings are complete. The Business Office then runs a disbursement roster and refunds those students with credit balances. Once the refunds have been delivered to the students, the Business Office draws in the funds per the disbursement roster totals. The disbursement roster is retained as support for the drawdown amount Implementation Date: Fall 2025

Corrective Action Plan – Kansas Health Science University Identifying Number: 2025-001 Finding: Excess Cash – Student Financial Aid Applicable Regulation: According to Uniform Grant Guidance (34 CFR 668.166), the Secretary considers excess cash to be any amount of Title IV, HEA program funds, other than Federal Perkins Loan program funds, that an institution does not disburse to students within the required timeframe. Institutions must return any amount of excess cash over the one-percent tolerance and any remaining cash after the seven-day tolerance period. Finding: Kansas Health Science University (KHSU) had one instance of excess cash for the Federal Direct Student Loan program. During cash management testing, excess cash balances ranging from $94,646 to $190,735 were identified for the period March 21, 2025, to April 5, 2025. These balances exceeded the one-percent tolerance of prior year drawdowns and were not returned within the required seven-day period. Summary: KHSU identified one instance of excess cash due to delays in returning unused funds. The issue arose because records transmitted to the Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system were rejected, which prevented the Cash Funding Ledger (CFL) from accurately reflecting a balance owed through G5/G6. Once the rejected records were identified, the Financial Aid OƯice promptly reconciled and corrected them in COD, enabling the CFL levels to reflect the correct balance and allowing the return of excess cash through G5/G6. Corrective Action Planned or Taken: To prevent recurrence of this issue, the Financial Aid Office will implement a proactive measure: - If a similar technical issue is identified in the future, a temporary refund will be initiated in G5/G6 while reconciliation is underway. Once the actual refund amount is confirmed, the final adjustment will be made accordingly.
