Finding 2022-003 Corrective Action Plan: The University has made the necessary changes to the staff and to the review process including, but not limited to, the hiring of both a Senior Financial Aid Counselor and a Director of Transfer Students. The new Director of Transfer Students will have the necessary access/ability to generate the information and update the system to improve the University?s capability to monitor requirements of Title IV aid to ensure enhanced compliance. This will eliminate the challenge created by multiple financial aid counselors being assigned the responsibility for initiating the process, generating the information, and updating the system on a weekly basis. In addition, the Director of Financial Aid will receive alerts when the process has been completed, and perform periodic reviews, using sample populations, to ensure the process is being done timely and accurately. As this is a repeat finding, the University?s corrective action plan is being implemented immediately?Spring 2023. An internal review will be performed using Spring 2023 data with the assistance of the Director of Financial Aid, Director of Transfer Students and a neutral third party selected from another division within the University (documentation of these compliance tests will be memorialized for the record, June, Oct, Feb). Anticipated Completion Date: June 30, 2023
