Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. 84.033 Recommendation: We recommend the College review its FSEOG awarding procedures and strengthen controls to ensure accurate identification and prioritization of eligible students based on EFC. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: CGCC has reviewed its Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) awarding policy and will continue to ensure that FSEOG funds are awarded in accordance with federal guidelines. The discrepancy between the 2023–2024 award year and the current year was due to inaccurate Student Aid Index (SAI) data generated by a previous report. For the current year, the Financial Aid Office has identified and implemented a more accurate reporting tool, which has significantly improved the reliability of the SAI data used in awarding decisions. To further strengthen our internal controls and oversight, a new Financial Aid Director will be joining our team in June 2025. This leadership addition will enhance our ability to maintain compliance and ensure accurate, consistent awarding of FSEOG funds moving forward..

Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. 84.268, 84.063, 84.007, 84.033 Recommendation: We recommend the College strengthen its internal controls to ensure timely identification of students not meeting SAP standards. Additionally, the College should work with its system administrator to resolve the SAP calculation issue or implement an alternative method for tracking SAP compliance. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: CGCC has completed a thorough review of its Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy to ensure alignment with the capabilities and limitations of our current system. We remain committed to resolving ongoing system-related issues and are actively keeping the policy and system functionality in sync as improvements are made. The issue regarding SAP not calculating correctly is still in progress. We have been working closely with Anthology to identify and implement long-term solutions. Unfortunately, the necessary fixes require significant time and manual intervention. Despite these challenges, we have made progress: as of Spring 2025, we are now able to accurately identify affected students—something that was not possible during the 2023–2024 award year. Additionally, we are in the process of hiring a Financial Aid Director. This added leadership and support will help us address the remaining issues more efficiently and continue making meaningful progress toward full resolution Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Denise Reid-Strachan Planned completion date for corrective action plan: 9/1/2025
