Recommendation: We recommend the University implement procedures to ensure evidence of the key control review over payments to program participants is documented and retained. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Eastern Oregon University implemented a standardized internal review and documentation process for new scholarship and other program participant payment requests. The process now requires documentation showing that award criteria were reviewed and met, a secondary review was completed, the payment or disbursement amount was verified for accuracy before release, and post-disbursement reconciliation was performed. To support this process, the University created a form to document each step of the review and retain evidence of completion. The responsible department has also been instructed on the documentation expectations and records retention requirements so that evidence of these control activities is maintained and available for future audit review. This corrective action has been implemented for all new requests going forward. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Jason Hibbert, Financial Aid Director Planned completion date for corrective action plan: Completed.

Student Financial Assistance Cluster – Assistance Listing No. 84.268, 84.063, 84.007, 84.033, 84.379 Recommendation: We recommend that the University implement a key control to ensure that enrollment data, changes in status, and effective dates within NSLDS match the records of the institution and are reported timely, and to store evidence of the key control having occurred. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The University reports enrollment more frequently than the required 60 days to capture status changes in a timely manner. Reporting occurs each term at the end of the second week, the Tuesday after Census, Monday of week 7, and the end of the term. The Registrar and Financial Aid Office created a process to communicate accurate last dates of academic engagement (LDAs) for unofficial withdrawals so that withdrawal dates match LDAs used in Return of Title IV (R2T4) calculations and unofficial withdrawals are reported to NSLDS through the regular NSC process. The Offices have also instituted a shared tracking and review process to regularly spot-check enrollment reports to ensure that data reported in Banner matches NSC reports and is correctly uploaded to NSLDS. Documentation of unofficial withdrawals, LDAs, error reports, and tracking of sampling outcomes with any needed corrections are maintained in the school’s files and shared between offices. The Registrar’s Office will review Banner and NSC submissions to ensure accurate and matching LDAs and status dates; the Financial Aid Office is responsible for confirming NSC submittals have successfully uploaded to NSLDS and reflect correct data that matches R2T4 and unofficial withdrawal info. Manual reporting to NSLDS will only be used for emergency updates to meet timeliness requirements, with multiple follow-up verification for NSC or roster file overwrites. Policy and Procedures Manuals will be updated accordingly, and staff in both offices will be trained annually and with onboarding. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Emily Sharratt, Registrar; Jason Hibbert, Director of Financial Aid Planned completion date for corrective action plan: March 31, 2026

Condition: During our testing of expenditures charged to ALN 93.958, we identified 2 transactions out of a total sample of 15 totaling $192 that were incurred outside of the award’s period of performance. Corrective Action Plan: To ensure compliance and accurate reporting, we established internal control protocols for the formal review of service dates, verifying that all expenditures correspond to the appropriate period of performance. The Controller's signature on formal, documented month end checklists will serve as confirmation that all year-end invoices have been checked for appropriate period distribution.

We concur with the recommendation. We acknowledge Meals on Wheels of Wake County was understaffed in eligibility staffing during this period. Thus, some assessments were delayed. We have since added 1.5 FTE to assist in this process. However, it should be acknowledged that we see our clients in their home or at congregate sites on a routine/daily basis, therefore are completely aware of their condition and eligibility. Additionally, Title III Nutrition programs do not mean test. For Home Delivered Meals, there are criteria for being considered homebound. For congregate the only requirement is to be 60 years of age and sign up for meals. We have implemented procedures to ensure the meal recipients are evaluated and assessed in a timely manner.

Finding 2025-001 – Internal control deficiency and noncompliance over Activities Allowed or Unallowed, Allowable Costs/Cost Principles, and Reporting related to broadband services expenditures Connecting Minority Communities Pilot Program During testing over the Activities Allowed or Unallowed, Allowable Costs/Cost Principles, and Reporting compliance requirement, management did not have effective internal controls in place over the compliance requirements related to the award. Management submitted and received reimbursement from the grantor for broadband services expenditures without making full payment during the period under audit. In addition, management included the broadband services expenditures in the federal financial report for federal cash 10b – cash disbursements and federal expenditures and unobligated balance 10e – federal share of expenditures line items; however, as full payment was not made, these line items should exclude the broadband services expenditures. Management Response and Action Plan: Management has made full pre-payment for broadband services before the project period end date of January 14, 2026 to be in compliance and will implement a review of future prepaid expenditures, if applicable to any grants. Management has reviewed the reporting requirements of the Federal Financial Report and will implement a review to ensure that cash disbursements are accurately reported in future reports. Any discrepancies between sponsor communications and award agreements will be reviewed by management for correct interpretation and financial presentation. Responsible Person: Cindy Dickson, Executive Director/AOR- Research Innovation & Industry Relations Target Date: January 2026
