Corrective Action Plans

The University created additional reporting to identify student grade level reported on student system (SGASTDN) to the calculated grade level (ROASTAT) and any blanks. In addition, to the report which was created prior to this citing, training directly from the software provider has been scheduled. The University will review the option of creating a specific budget or packaging group for students in certificate programs. This would afford rules to award only level one loan limits regardless of calculated grade level. Standard cost of attendance (coa) is posted by system processing rules. In certain situations, the coa may be adjusted manually by staff. The student information system does track and log these updates. The University will increase training regarding coa adjustments, strengthen standard posting of changes and why. A report has been created to identify any change to the standard budget component. This will be added as a point of review for the compliance coordinator. The primary risk area is summer since it is a manual process. The use of algorithmic budgeting will assist with changes to coa as well. In addition, the University is working with software provider to establish algorithmic budgeting rules. This option allows cost of attendance (coa) to be completed by enrollment period versus aid periods. The benefit is coa can be estimated at full-time and prior to disbursement adjust coa to part-time. The office of student financial services is working with the University to identify and address additional human resources needed to best address increased volume and greater compliance. Cari Wickliffe, Assistant Vice President and Director of Student Financial Services, is responsible for addressing the above items by July 1, 2023.

Finding No. 2022-002 ? Report Filed After Due Date Repeat Finding: No ALN and Program: 84.007; 84.033; 84.063; 84.268 ? Student Financial Assistance Cluster Award Amount: $46,751,524 Award Number: N/A Award Year: 7/1/2021-6/30/2022 Criteria: By October 1 the institution should submit its ED Form 646-1, Fiscal Operations Report, and Application to Participate (FISAP) that includes the Fiscal Operations Report for the preceding award year and the Application to Participate for the upcoming award year (FWS, FSEOG 34 CFR 673.3; Fiscal Operations Report and Application to Participate Instructions). Condition / Context: The FISAP for award year 2021-2022 was filed on October 12, 2022. Our sample was statistically valid. Cause: As MATC approached the deadline for FISAP submission, responsible MATC personnel were not aware of the outstanding reporting items and the immediate need to employ an alternative plan to ensure the timely submission of the FISAP. Questioned Costs: Unknown Effect: This electronic report is submitted annually to receive funds for the campus-based programs. The institution uses the Fiscal Operations Report portion to report its expenditures in the previous award year and the Application to Participate portion to apply for the following year. Delays in filing of this report could result in delays with subsequent year funding. Recommendation: MATC should implement a reporting calendar, including deadlines for draft, review and approval of the FISAP to ensure timely filing. District Response: MATC agrees with the finding and has developed, documented and implemented a process and calendar to ensure timely completion of the annual FISAP. Al Pinckney, Executive Director of Financial Aid 12/6/2022

Finding No. 2022-003 ? R2T4 Return Calculation Errors Repeat Finding: No ALN and Program: 84.007; 84.033; 84.063; 84.268 ? Student Financial Assistance Cluster Award Amount: $46,751,524 Award Number: N/A Award Year: 7/1/2021-6/30/2022 Criteria: For returns of Title IV Funding when a student does not complete the enrollment period for which funds were disbursed, the amount of earned Title IV grant or loan assistance is calculated by determining the percentage of Title IV grant or loan assistance that has been earned by the student and applying that percentage to the total amount of Title IV grant or loan assistance that was or could have been disbursed to the student for the payment period or period of enrollment as of the student's withdrawal date. Standard term-based institutions must always use the payment period as the basis for the determination. The unearned amount of Title IV assistance to be returned is calculated by subtracting the amount of Title IV assistance earned by the student from the amount of Title IV aid that was disbursed to the student as of the date of the institution's determination that the student withdrew (34 CFR 668.22(e)). Condition / Context: The auditor selected 21 unenrolled students who had Title IV returns for testing. For each student selected, the return amount was incorrectly calculated because the payment period was not used as the basis for the determination. Our sample was statistically valid. Cause: Unauthorized break periods and start dates were used to determine the base period for calculation. MATC's review process was not effective to detect and correct this error. Staff responsible for calculating R2T4 returns were not properly trained in the requirements. Questioned Costs: $5,097 Effect: MATC has determined that a total of 425 returns were incorrectly calculated, with an estimated net error of $5,097. Recommendation: We recommend MATC re-evaluate its review process for Title IV returns, and provide additional training for management and staff to ensure the calculations and compliance requirements are understood and that control processes are operating effectively to ensure proper returns. District Response: MATC agrees with the finding and has developed, documented and implemented a process and correct the student record errors, provide updated training and update R2T4 procedures to ensure proper calculation going forward. Al Pinckney, Executive Director of Financial Aid 12/6/2022

Finding No. 2022-004 ? Reporting Discrepancies - Enrollment Repeat Finding: 2021-001 ALN and Program: 84.007; 84.033; 84.063; 84.268 ? Student Financial Assistance Cluster Award Amount: $46,751,524 Award Number: N/A Award Year: 7/1/2021-6/30/2022 Criteria: Institutions are required to report enrollment information under the Pell grant and the Direct and FFEL loan programs via the NSLDS (OMB No. 1845-0035). Institutions must review, update and verify student enrollment statuses, program information, and effective dates that appear on the Enrollment Reporting Roster file or on the Enrollment Maintenance page of the NSLDS Professional Access (NSLDSFAP). Condition / Context: We selected a sample of 25 Pell and Direct Loan students from the institution's records that had a reduction or increase in attendance levels, graduated, withdrew, dropped out or enrolled but never attended during the audit period. We compared the data in the students' NSLDS Enrollment Detail to the students' academic files and other institutional records and verified that the institution is accurately reporting the significant Campus-Level and Program-Level enrollment data elements that ED considers high risk. Of the 25 sampled, 10 had discrepancies between the status documented in MATC's institutional records and the status reported on the NSLDS. Our sample was not statistically valid. Cause: In April 2021, the National Student Clearinghouse made a change to its reporting process, which resulted in errors in MATC's data uploads. MATC has begun the process of testing and correcting its process, but this was not completed as of June 30, 2022. MATC believes this update error has caused the continued discrepancies between MATC and the NSLDS. Questioned Costs: Unknown Effect: The administration of the Title IV programs depends heavily on the accuracy and timeliness of the enrollment information reported by institutions. Incorrect reporting of enrollment status could result in incorrect distribution of Title IV funds to institutions or individuals. Recommendation: We recommend MATC continues its review process for enrollment statuses, and provide additional training for management and staff to ensure the correct statuses are reported and that control processes are operating effectively to ensure proper returns. District Response: The Office of the Registrar has developed and is implementing an action plan to ensure correct reporting through the National Clearinghouse and NSLDS. The process includes additional staff training, review and update of the submissions process and schedule and enlisting support from specific contacts at the Clearinghouse. These steps were completed by September 2022. Additional steps, including review of the reporting setup the SIS system with the IT department, discussing and resolving existing issues with the Clearinghouse, performing checks of individual current and prior year students to identify and correct additional gaps, incorporating a regular review of a sample of students for proper reporting and hiring additional staff for reporting enrollment ? all to be completed by December 2022. Beginning in 2023, staff will also create and submit an additional report to the Clearinghouse for each submission of graduates and creating a position to lead enrollment reporting. Dr. Sarah Adams, Dean of Enrollment Services 12/6/2022

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-007 Student Financial Assistance Program Cluster ? Title IV ? Eligibility Condition During testing, it was discovered that two students were over awarded subsidized direct loans. Recommendation We recommend that the institution implement controls to ensure that direct loan award amounts are reviewed for accuracy prior to making awards to students. Actions Taken As of March 23, 2023, the College has begun to implement a review of student awards that will include reviewing all aid and credits that the student is receiving and double checking NSLDS loan amount limits.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-006 Student Financial Assistance Program Cluster ? Title IV ? Reporting Condition During testing, it was discovered that COD reflected inaccurate disbursement amounts for two students. Recommendation We recommend that the institution review its reconciliation process and implement controls to ensure that COD records accurately reflect actual disbursements. In addition, we recommend that the institution implement a control to ensure that all completed verifications have been reported to COD. Actions Taken As of March 23, 2023, COD records have been updated for the two students in question. In addition, communication is ongoing with the College?s software provider in order to work towards a control that will ensure that this error does not occur again. Lastly, the College has implemented a review process to ensure that applicable students have completed their verification, and the third-party vendor who completes the verification process has been contacted about setting up a notification system to alert personnel when a student completes their verification.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-005 Student Financial Assistance Program Cluster ? Title IV ? Eligibility Condition During testing, it was discovered one student was incorrectly awarded Pell, and two others did not receive Pell disbursements for both eligible semesters attended during the year. Recommendation We recommend that the institution implement controls to ensure that all scheduled disbursements are ultimately posted. In addition, when calculating Pell awards, the Payment and Disbursement Schedule that matches the student?s enrollment status should be carefully selected and applied. Actions Taken As of March 23, 2023, the scheduled Pell awards for the two noted students have been posted and disbursed. In addition, an additional review step has been implemented to take place before any aid disbursements are made.

2022-004 Student Financial Assistance Program Cluster ? Title IV ? Cash Management and Special Tests and Provisions ? COD Reconciliation Condition During testing, it was discovered that Pell and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) funds were drawn down and not disbursed within they required timeframe. In addition, funds were drawn down from Direct Loan sources when they were meant to be drawn from alternative sources. Recommendation We recommend that the institution review its reconciliation process and implement controls to ensure that funding is drawn from correct sources and disbursed within three business days of receipt. Actions Taken Upon request by COD, a repayment of Direct Loan funds was made in order to correct the variance that they noted which was caused by the Alternative Loans that were drawn from the incorrect source. In addition, as of March 23, 2023, a new draw-down process will be implemented. Changes include not drawing down any aid until it is approved by the Director of Financial Aid, confirmation throughout the draw-down process, and better communication between the Accounts Payable/Financial Aid Specialist, Accounts Receivable and the Director of Financial Aid.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-003 Student Financial Assistance Program Cluster ? Title IV ? Reporting Condition During testing, items reported within the FISAP were found to be inaccurate or were unable to be substantiated due to a lack of supporting documentation. Recommendation We recommend that all supporting documentation used in the preparation of the FISAP be saved in an easily identifiable location. Actions Taken As of March 23, 2023, all documents used in the preparation of the FISAP will be saved and filed in one location at the time of preparation.

Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs Finding 2022-01: Special Reporting Federal Program: Student Financial Aid Cluster Federal Agency: Department of Education CFDA Number: 84.007, 84.063, 84.268, 84.033 Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: We agree with the finding. As of January 2023, we have incorporated and communicated the updates to our policy and procedures to ensure both information systems are reconciled monthly, as well as maintaining appropriate documentation as assigned to both the Finance Department and the Financial Aid Manager.

Name of Responsible Individual: Jason Byrd, University Registrar Corrective Action: Liberty acknowledges that there was one instance in which a student?s enrollment status was not reported within compliance timeframes. Additionally, Liberty recognizes there were 4 months in the year in which there were repeat errors found in the SSCR error files. Liberty University has worked to ensure the enrollment reporting process is handled compliantly and within allowable timeframes. While many processes have been improved over the past two years, it is evident another level of quality control is needed. Therefore, Liberty University?s Financial Aid Office has invested in creating a position that will solely focus on the compliance and quality control of the University?s enrollment reporting. This individual will work collaboratively with the Registrar?s Office and utilize additional reporting from NSLDS to pre-emptively identify errors and student notifications that are in danger of being out of compliance. Anticipated Completion Date: March 31, 2023

2022-002 FEDERAL DIRECT LOAN RECONCILIATIONS Federal Assistance Listing Number: 84.268 Criteria According to 34 CFR 685.300(b)(5), the College must, on a monthly basis, reconcile institutional records with Direct Loan funds received from the Secretary and Direct Loan disbursement records submitted to and accepted by the Secretary. Observation/Condition/Context The College did not perform the monthly reconciliations over direct loans for all months out of the fiscal year. We requested a selection of reconciliations out of the 12 required and were informed that only 8 reconciliations were performed. Questioned Cost There were no questioned costs related to this finding. Cause/Effect The reconciliations were not performed due to a transition of responsible parties over the reconciliations. Direct loan discrepancies may not have been identified and resolved in a timely manner due to the lack of monthly reconciliations. Recommendation We recommend that the College perform direct loan reconciliations monthly to ensure that discrepancies are properly addressed in a timely manner. Planned Corrective Action Effective with the 2021/2022 Direct Loan reconciliations for February 2022 (performed in March 2022), a revised process was implemented to make the process more efficient and accurate. Along with this the Finance Manager took on the responsibility to execute the process monthly and share the results with other relevant teams by the 2nd week of the following month. Since this time the process has continued to be refined and all reconciliations (student level detail and summary) have been completed and shared timely for the remaining portion of award year 2021/2022 and for 2022/2023 through February 2023. Now that the process is firmly in place and effective, cross-training with others in the Business office will take place and be completed by the end of April 2023 to ensure an adequate depth of resources are available to maintain timeliness and accuracy of the reconciliations. Implementation Date The revised process was implemented in March 2022 and was refined since to ensure effectiveness and sustainability of the process going forward. Additional training to add to the depth of resources to perform the process will be completed by the end of April 2023.

2022-003 NSLDS STUDENT ENROLLMENT STATUS REPORTING Federal Assistance Listing Number: Various; Student Financial Aid Cluster, Department of Education Criteria (1) According to 34 CFR 682.610(b), (1) Upon receipt of an enrollment report from the Secretary, a school must update all information included in the report and return the report to the Secretary ? (i) In the manner and format prescribed by the Secretary; and (ii) Within the timeframe prescribed by the Secretary. (2) Unless it expects to submit its next updated enrollment report to the Secretary within the next 60 days, a school must notify the Secretary within 30 days after the date the school discovers that (i) 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; or (ii) A student who is enrolled at the school and who received a loan under title IV of the Act has changed his or her permanent address. Observation/Condition/Context The College did not report a change in enrollment status to the National Student Loan Clearinghouse for a student within the required 60 days. During our testing, we noted that 1 of 21 students tested had a change in enrollment status that was late in reporting to the NSLDS. Questioned Cost There were no questioned costs related to this finding. Cause/Effect The College had not performed a review on a timely basis, which resulted in the noncompliance with the cited provisions above. Continued noncompliance may cause a delay in the loan repayment process for the student borrowers that withdraw from the College. Recommendation We recommend that the College implement a procedure to ensure that all student enrollment status changes are accurately reported in a timely manner. Planned Corrective Action The Student Records office will put reminders in place to ensure enrollment reporting is sent out monthly to the National Student Loan Clearinghouse.

BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY-HAWAII Management's View and Corrective Action Plan Finding 2022-001- Non-Compliance with Timely and Accurate Student Enrollment Change Submissions to the National student Loan Data System (significant Deficiency) Grantor: U.S. Department of Education Program : Student Financial Assistance Cluster Assistance Listing #: 84.268, 84.063 Title: Federal Direct Student Loan Program, Federal Pell Grant program Award Years: 7/2021 - 6/2023 Management agrees with the finding and proposes the following Corrective Action Plan Corrective Action Plan: Due to the NSLDS outage as announced by the U.S. Department of Education Federal Student Aid's (FSA) office, we were unable to submit enrollment rosters for the period of July 19,2022 through February 28, 2023. Therefore, we are continuing to implement the following corrective action plan to address both the prior year and current year issues as discussed below. The current year finding is the result of three separate reporting issues. The first issue is a repeat finding from the 2021 fiscal year audit (2021-001) related to inaccurately reporting the status of graduated students. When graduation files were sent to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), many could not be processed due to the "G" status not being applied when students were reported as graduated. Because of this, the NSC was not sending graduation information for some students to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Therefore, to appropriately resolve this issue, Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will regularly access the NSC dashboard, prior to submitting of monthly enrollment report, to promptly identify and resolve any reporting issues to ensure NSLDS has the correct information for students. The second issue is a repeat finding from the 2021 fiscal year audit (2021-001) and is the result of inappropriate configuration of each semester's credit load determinations (i.e., how many credits constitute full time, three quarter time, half time, etc.) into PeopleSoft. As a result of the inappropriate configuration, certain student statuses were reported incorrectly given the number of credit hours the student was attending. To ensure accuracy of each semester's credit load determinations, at the beginning of each semester, Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will review and approve the credit load determinations prior to them being pushed into PeopleSoft. This will ensure that PeopleSoft is configured to communicate the appropriate statuses to the NSLDS. The third issue referenced the reporting of the correct program begin dates. When a student returns from a leave of absence or an internship, PeopleSoft updates the students program begin date for the students return date rather than the original program begin date. Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will perform a review of program begin dates for students returning from a leave of absence to ensure the proper program begin date is reported. In addition, we will review if any PeopleSoft enhancements can be made to provide additional comfort that the program begin dates are accurate in these circumstances. Daryl Whitford, Registrar, who is responsible for enrollment reporting at Brigham Young University- Hawaii will continue to provide training to staff who participate in enrollment reporting to ensure that they are aware of the campus and program enrollment changes to be reported, the details to be reported for each change, and the importance of submitting changes timely. Also, Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will oversee the implementation of a control wherein the University will sample students from each roster submission and trace the information from the batch file back to the supporting documentation to ensure that the information included in the batch roster file is accurate. Timing: Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will be responsible to oversee that the items as noted in the Corrective Action Plan section above will be implemented by July 1, 2023. Signed and Acknowledged Daryl Whitford Registrar

Management Views and Corrective Action Plan Year Ending December 31, 2022 Finding 2022-002 ? Pell Grant Notification Letters Grantor: U.S. Department of Education Program: Student Financial Assistance Cluster Assistance Listing #: 84.063 Title: Federal Pell Grant Program Award Years: 7/2021 ? 6/2023 Management agrees with the finding and proposes the following Corrective Action Plan: Corrective Action Plan This issue is a result of no manual or system controls in place to prevent disbursement of financial aid to a student?s account if a student?s federal financial aid award notification was not yet communicated. This issue was corrected as soon as it was identified by changing our procedures to require Pell notification letters be sent as soon as funds are awarded and before funds are disbursed to a student?s account. As an additional precaution, Pell notification letters will be added to the nightly batch process in PeopleSoft to ensure letters are sent timely. Financial aid staff will also receive additional training in this area. Timing Procedures will be changed in May 2023 by Riley Niemand, Manager of Financial Aid, to require Pell notification letters be sent as soon as funds are awarded and prior to funds being disbursed to a student?s account. During May 2023, Riley Niemand will also provide additional training to financial aid staff in this area. Additionally, Riley Niemand started working with a consultant to add Pell notification letters to the daily batch process. This work is expected to be complete by June 2023.

These additional steps will be taken to address the new issues found during the 2022 audit within enrollment reporting, which resulted in a repeat finding of 2021-001. Grayson Layton, Registrar, will review the College?s policies and procedures surrounding student enrollment and enrollment reporting, starting in May 2023 specifically as it relates to students that have withdrawn that are expected to return in the subsequent semester but fail to reenroll. Any changes in the College?s policies and procedures will be appropriately documented and communicated to the individuals involved in updating student enrollment information in the system. Additionally, Enrollment Services will work with a PeopleSoft consultant and technical staff to customize our Student Information System to allow for the correct reporting of student status to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC). Technical staff and a consultant will be engaged to perform an evaluation of all systems and practices related to enrollment reporting. The Enrollment Services and Financial Aid and Scholarships Offices will use various NSC and National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) error reports to ensure student enrollment information, including program level information, is reported in an accurate and timely manner. Timing Grayson Layton, Registrar, will work with consultants and technical staff starting in May 2023 to begin making necessary adjustments to the Student Information System to allow for accurate reporting of student enrollment information and to evaluate systems and practices related to enrollment reporting. They will meet monthly throughout the year to monitor their progress with an expected completion in December 2023. Grayson and Riley Niemand, Manager of Financial Aid, will coordinate the use of NSC and NSLDS error reports to identify students with reporting errors. This process will be complete in June 2023.
