Need Analysis Planned Corrective Action: The Pillar College financial aid office and third-party servicer utilizes the upgraded automated student information system to assess each student?s remaining need based on the Cost of Attendance Budget minus the total funding received from federal, state, and institutional scholarships. Triggers within the system are generated to the financial aid department when a student?s financial eligibility for packaging changes. Changes occur when the student?s enrollment status is reassessed and modified, or when their credits have increased after transfer credits have been entered into the system. Periodic reports will be set up in the student information system to check for over or under awarding of need based federal aid.

Satisfactory Academic Progress Planned Corrective Action: To receive financial aid students must maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 (?C?) or better, or be in a SAP-Probation program to recover their GPA. Pillar College academic standards require a student to have a minimum of a 2.0 cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) to graduate. Degree seeking students will be evaluated for Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) on an annual basis. Pillar College is dedicated to helping students succeed academically and progress to graduation and is therefore committed to identifying students who may be struggling. Satisfactory Academic Progress is measured by three components: 1) The student?s cumulative grade point average (CGPA), 2) The student?s rate of progress toward completion (ROP), and 3) The maximum time frame (MTF) allowed to complete the academic program. (150% for all programs.) All students who receive financial aid at Pillar College are required to meet qualifying Academic standards. The student must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). If a student?s cumulative GPA falls below a 2.0, the student will be placed in Suspension Pending and must appeal to remain in school. Upon review of the appeal, the student will be placed on SAP Probation for the following semester/year and directed to the Academic Resource Center (ARC) for mandatory tutoring sessions through registration into ARC-090 SAP Remediation, a pass/fail course for SAP students. For the LEAD Program, the GPA benchmark is 2.5 to remain in the program. The probationary status permits the student to continue in college while working with the Academic Resource Center (ARC) to address deficiencies and take corrective action for improvement. The student may continue to receive Title IV and State Financial Aid so long as they are adhering to their SAP Remediation Plan. The student must use the SAP Remediation Form while on SAP Probation (available from the ARC). An assessment of current enrolled students? degree progress will occur mid-July. If the SAP standard is not being met, the student will be placed on SAP-Probation. It is possible to continue to receive Financial Aid while on SAP-Probation if the student?s ?Academic Plan? is being followed, and grades are improving. If a student does not adhere to the ?Academic Plan?, they may be moved to SAP-Suspension, and removed from the financial aid program. Aid will also be suspended for the semester if credit hours attempted fall below the credit hour criteria. Pillar College financial aid office, the Academic Resource Center (ARC) and the registrar?s office met to discuss and update the Satisfactory Academic Policy (SAP policy), implementing the changes in the current fiscal year. These changes are reflected in the Pillar College Catalog. Due to upgraded student services systems the process is functioning more effectively and efficiently. As stated before, an assessment of current enrolled students? degree progress will occur mid-July. The registrar, financial aid, and the Academic Resource Center (ARC) will meet together as a team two days after the report is published to discuss the results. Students will be notified individually through phone calls and emails to make an appointment with the Academic Resource Center to create a self-evaluative plan to increase their GPA. The ARC will upload the plan into the student services system and monitor the student?s progress by direct contact with the student. It will be noted in the student services system under the individual student?s account if a student does not respond to the notices, phone calls or emails that are sent. The student will be put on academic hold and will not be able to enroll in the new semester.

Inaccurate and Untimely Returns to Title IV Planned Corrective Action: Pillar College changed the R2T4 policy in the catalog and created an R2T4 form to monitor the process. Our operating system, Anthology, has been upgraded to include automatic triggers. The automated system alerts financial aid, the third-party servicer and the registrar to process and critique the effects of the student?s official and/or unofficial withdrawal. Three specific processes have been created and are combined under ?Withdrawal Process Flow Charts: Official, Unofficial and Non-Returning Student?. After analysis the financial aid office and third-party servicer determine the potentiality of funds to be returned to Title IV in a timely manner.

MATERIAL WEAKNESS 2022 ?001 Segregation of Duties Name of contact person: Ann Stroud, Finance Officer Corrective Action: The duties are separated a much as possible with limited staff and alternative controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements are not misstated. At this time, it would be cost prohibitive to add personnel just for segregation of duties. The Village recognizes that reasonable assurance takes into consideration that the cost of internal control should not exceed the benefits. The manager or designated alternate is control for most of the finance functions such as review of accounts payable and bank statements. The Mayor or Mayor Pro Tem manually signs checks, so there is a second review before the checks are mailed. The Clerk mails the payable checks. The clerk the deposits and deposits with bank and the Finance Officer records. Purchase card transactions for public works is entered by senior administrative assistant. The Council receives check register, cash balances and revenue and expenditure review on a monthly basis. The Village continues to review possible segregation of duties, if personnel expertise allows. Proposed Completion Date: The Village has implemented the segregation of duties as much as possible without hiring additional personnel that is cost prohibitive at the moment. We have implemented review procedures with management that we believe would prevent any material misstatements of the financial statements. Since the manager is the designated control for finance functions, there is an alternate designated by the Manager.

Audit Finding Reference: 2022-001 Planned Corrective Action: This is a repeat finding from 2021 audit which was properly addressed and fully resolved by March 2023. The League has strengthened its internal controls over timely submission of subaward data in FFATA (Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act) reports. NUL Legal Department used to be responsible for generating FFATA reports, as they are authorized with review of new grant agreements as well as related contracts/subrecipients agreements submitted for approval. Some reports were not submitted in time because of continuous turnover in the department in 2021-22. The regular workflow was sometimes interrupted, and new appointees had to catch up following their priority lists. Eventually, at the end of February 2023, the function was moved to the Finance department and a specific position designated for completing FFATA reports under supervision of VP, B&G/Director, B&G. All pending FFATA reports have been completed immediately after that. We keep submitting FFATA reports for new grants as soon as subaward amounts are finalized. Name and Title of Contact Persons: Paul Wycisk, Interim Chief Financial Officer; Lisa Davis, Vice-President for Financial Operations; Triva John, Vice-President for Budget & Grants, Konstantin Yurashkevich, Director for Budget & Grants

Reference Number: 2022-001 Audit Finding: Other Compliance Corrective Action: The Public Utilities Department has re-evaluated the internal procedures and practices of maintaining compliance documentation. Third party vendors will no longer serve as an archive for notification documentation. All notification receipts and various forms of verification will be saved in house, on the City of San Diego?s network. As of today, March 28, 2023, once email notifications are sent to customers using an external service provider, the notification confirmations will be immediately archived at the City of San Diego. This affords the City full control and oversight of the verification process for all future noticing. As of today, all available notification verifications from the third-party vendor have been downloaded and saved to the City network for future inquiries. Furthermore, internal controls will be enhanced to ensure notification verification compliance. Upon notification to customers, the Data and Analytics Program Coordinator will oversee the immediate archiving of all confirmations of emails sent to customers using an external service provider. Once complete, the Data and Analytics Program Coordinator will notify the Program Manager, who will in turn, perform a secondary review of all notifications against the verification documentation to ensure accuracy. At this point, a third level of approval will be added, as the Public Utilities Customer Support Deputy Director will provide a final level review. Once complete, these documents will be saved for a minimum of five years, per the City of San Diego?s retention policy. Anticipated Implementation Date: 3/28/23 Contact: Katie Keach, Deputy Director, Public Utilities Department

Recommendation: We recommend the Organization maintain evidence of suspension and debarment procedures to support compliance to federal regulations and to ensure that all potential vendors are not suspended or debarred. Also, we recommend that the Organization expand its purchasing procedures to add suspension or debarment certification and verification to all Organization purchase orders to ensure transactions in all funds are being verified for current suspension or debarment. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Transitions with the Procurement Contracting Department occurred in May 2020. When it was identified that documentation of suspension and debarment could not be located, steps were taken to ensure that the review of suspension and debarment was documented and appropriately filed. Training was provided to the new Procurement Director to make sure this process is followed and maintained. This has been done to go along with communication to staff that all types or forms of contracts or agreements must go through our Procurement Contracting Department so that the vendor can be checked for suspension and debarment prior to execution of the contract or agreement.
