Contact Person: William Bane Management's Response: Management acknowledges that there were not sufficient controls in place to ensure written consent from HUD prior to incurring new debt or lease arrangements. Management does feel that subsequent emails and phone conversations did take place where communication of new debt or lease arrangements were discussed. However, Management cannot produce hard copy documentation due to not having access to the email files of management that was in place at that time. Current Management has now established effective controls to ensure that written consent is obtained prior to incurring new debt or lease arrangements. Going forward, Accounting will verify prior to submitting any payments that the addendum with the HUD language has been received . These will be scanned and saved to one central location so that they are easy to obtain. In addition, once Accounting Management is aware of any new debt being discussed, we will ensure there is a copy of the approval from HUD kept in Accounting so it can be easily obtained.

Finding 2022-002 Condition: Management did not verify that its subrecipient?s were not suspended or debarred or otherwise excluded from participating in the transactions. Foundation?s Response: The Foundation does not concur. 2 CFR Part 180 provides OMB guidance ?only to Federal agencies? (2CFR ? 180.5). As a pass-through entity, the Foundation falls under Uniform Guidance requirements at 2 CFR 200.332. Verification that subrecipients are not suspended, debarred or otherwise excluded is not a requirement of 200.332. However, the Foundation is committed to diligence in our stewardship of Federal funds, therefore we took the auditor?s comment into consideration, and incorporated an annual review of the Do Not Pay list into our subrecipient pre-award risk assessments.

Finding 2022-001 SB Finding: During our audit, it came to our attention that the 2022 opening net assets did not reconcile to the 2021 independent audited amounts. There were several changes to prior year balances after the end of the audit. Additionally, there is no supervisory review of journal entries and general ledger activity on a monthly basis. Foundation?s Response: The Foundation does not concur. The auditor advised the Foundation that the material weakness finding was due to the ?additional time and effort needed to reconcile opening balances.? During the 2021 audit, the Foundation advised the auditor that general ledger account names would change in 2022, as part of the corrective action plan to clear the 2021 finding. The auditor acknowledged observing differences during the 2022 entrance conference, however there was no coordination to map account name changes prior to uploading the Foundation?s financial statements into the auditor?s system. As a result, multiple accounts did not map correctly to the 2021 account names and dozens of variances were created. Account name changes fell into two categories. First, we added clarifying language to distinguish expenditure accounts as G&A or Program. For example, the account name Travel: Reimbursements was changed to Company Travel: Reimbursements to clearly identify the account as a G&A expenditure. The purpose of which was to improve the effectiveness of account reconciliations, and reduce our risk of erroneous financial statement presentation, and our risk of erroneously charging an unallowable cost to federal funds. The Foundation updated 12 general ledger account names, and when posted into the auditor?s system, they were added as new accounts. This initially resulted in 24 account balance variances, however once the accounts were mapped, the variances were resolved. A second category of account changes involved the Foundation?s revenue accounts. The Foundation provided the auditor with a detailed accounting treatment plan during the 2021 audit as advance notice for 2022. We added primary accounts to clearly distinguish a funding source as Federal, Federal pass-through, non-Federal, Corporate and Private Donor, for the purpose of standardizing year-end accrual procedures and to ensure greater accuracy in the carry forward of net assets. Thirteen revenue accounts were moved under the new primary accounts, and this resulted in 18 variances in the SB system. Again, once the accounts were mapped, the variances were resolved. The Foundation does not expect mis-matched accounts to occur in the future. During our variance reconciliation, the Foundation added SB?s numerical codes to our account names to allow SB?s system to match records numerically, rather than by name. The Foundation did adjust two year-end accrual balances to correct items missed in 2021. During the 2022 audit the Foundation requested guidance on restating the 2021 statements for the adjustments, however, because the amount was immaterial, the auditor recommended the adjustment be made in 2022. Foundation removed the 2021 post-audit adjustments and posted them to 2022. The total amount of the adjustments was $126,031. The auditor?s corrective action was completed after the 2021 audit. Reconciliations are completed monthly, quarterly, and/or annually. Additionally, we engaged a bookkeeper that is credentialed as a certified professional advisor for our accounting software. The bookkeeper?s beginning task was to perform a ?health check? of the accrual accounts set up during the 2021 audit, and we were assured of the effectiveness of our accounts. On a monthly basis, the bookkeeper performs monthly account reconciliations, financial statement preparation, and variance identification, when applicable. The reconciliations are overseen by Foundation?s Director of Finance, a certified public accountant.

Sacred Heart University Corrective Action Plan Year ended June 30, 2022 Finding 2022-001: Significant Deficiency and Noncompliance: Special Tests and Provisions ? Enrollment Reporting Corrective Action Planned Sacred Heart University has implemented a corrective action plan which involved collaboration with our enterprise resource provider, Ellucian, the Registrar?s Office, and the Department of Information Technology (IT). Sacred Heart University acknowledges that published program lengths reported on National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) records did not conform with reporting requirements. The University?s ERP, Ellucian, provided instruction on updating the code for programs with ?years to complete,? which enabled the IT department to identify and correct existing active programs. To prevent future errors the Registrar?s Office can access the mnemonic (screen) to code new program records in ?years to complete.? Sacred Heart University processed and submitted the first two branches, 00 and 81, on 3/24/23, and Clearinghouse took steps to update the records. Sacred Heart University acknowledges incorrectly reporting the Graduated status effective date as the last day of classes instead of the last day of final exams at the NSLDS program level for two students sampled during our FY22 Federal Single audit. The University has amended its procedures to avoid potential errors causing nonconformities. The updated procedures will ensure the utilization of the last day of final exams as the Graduated status effective date at the program level and strengthen the review of the graduate file before submitting it to the Clearinghouse. Sacred Heart University acknowledges incorrectly reporting the student program begin date for one student sampled during our FY22 Federal Single audit. The University reported the student in the incorrect branch, discovered the error upon graduation, and moved the student to the correct branch. As a result of the branch correction, the University reported to the NSLDS the start date of the student?s last trimester instead of the actual program start date. The Registrar?s office, working with the Clearinghouse, is taking steps to correct the branch reporting which will fix the reported program start date for this particular student. The University is amending its procedures to prevent further noncompliance. The Registrar?s office is amending the report used to ensure students are selected and reported in the correct branches. The Registrar is also enhancing the report to include data identifying potential erroneous reporting before enrollment data is reported to the Clearinghouse.

Planned corrective action: The Business Office will retrain the staff with duties and responsibilities over payroll in the current policies and procedures to ensure the maintenance of documentation of approved payrate, review of timesheets and semi-annual certifications, and the review of payroll registers.

The Senior Vice President of Finance/Controller and Managing Director of Accounting will randomly inspect records to validate the adequacy and completeness of the source and supporting records.
