Finding: Special Tests and Provisions: Enrollment Reporting Changes in enrollment to less than half time, graduated or withdrawn must be reported to the National Student Loan Data System within 30 days. However, if a roster file is expected within 60 days of the status change, a school may provide the data on that roster file. Of the three students within the sample of students tested that had status changes, all were reported to NSLDS outside of the required timeline, and two were reported to NSLDS inaccurately subsequent to the 2021-2022 fiscal year. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management is in agreement with this finding. Update the Student Information System timely; have a process in place with specific people responsible for updating and submitting the roster timely; train staff; create and follow policies and procedures to ensure there are no delays in reporting a change in status. Management will implement a reporting mechanism to identify and a process to address withdrawals as determined whereby updates will be submitted to the NSLDS Responsible Official: Tafe Lindsey Completion Date: Ongoing

Two students were not included in the conferral file that was transmitted to the National Student Clearinghouse. For 3 of 27 Campus-Level Records sampled, the University did not report the student?s change in status in a timely notification to the NSLDS website. For 3 of 27 Program-Level Records sampled, the University did not report the student?s change in status in a timely notification to the NSLDS website. For 5 of 27 Program-Level Records sampled, the University did not accurately report all significant data elements in a timely notification to the NSLDS website. While NSC records were reviewed, these items were not caught. Moving forward, two staff members will review each record to ensure that the graduated status is reported correctly. We will work with Student Financial Services to determine if there is a NSLDS report that can be pulled and reviewed after each conferral cycle. Program level data was reported to the NSC. We will work with the NSC to determine why all records aren?t being reported to the NSLDS.

During the testing of the compliance requirements of this program, it was determined that the lost revenues were being reported incorrectly and not consistent with existing guidance provided by HHS, which led to the Organization under-reporting their lost revenues within the HHS Provider Relief Fund portal. Personnel Responsible for Corrective Action: Sherri Lohe, Chief Financial Officer Anticipated Completion Date: Change is in process and full adoption is anticipated by December 31, 2022 Corrective Action Plan: The Organization is going to continue and improve its understanding of the guidance related to this type of reporting and work with their external advisors to ensure future portal submissions are compliant with said guidance. Going forward, the Organization will continue to improve its internal controls related to lost revenue calculations and reporting and work with their external advisors to ensure future portal submissions, if any, are compliant with said guidance. The under-reporting of lost revenues had no impact on the Organization?s ability to cover the total Provider Relief Fund payments received.

Charter Schools ? AL #84.282 2022-003 Noncompliance ? Procurement and Suspension and Debarment (Repeat Finding 2021-003) Significant Deficiency Recommendation: The Auditor recommended the Organization develop a system of internal controls aligned with the applicable compliance requirements to sufficiently document procurements and to ensure suspension and debarment is considered prior to entering into future covered transactions.

Wood County Village, Inc. HUD Project No. 042-HD044 Audit Firm: GBQ Partners LLC Audit Period: 07/1/21-06/30/22 CAP Prepared by: Ryan Gailbreath 419-725-8608 A. Current Findings on the Schedule of Findings, Questioned Costs, and Recommendations. 1. Finding 2022-001 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities (Section 811) ? CFDA 14.181; Grant period ? Year ended June 30, 2022 a. Comments on the Finding and Each Recommendation. Statement of Condition: Security deposits were not placed into a segregated account. Criteria: The HUD Handbook 4350.3 Occupancy Requirements of Subsidized Multifamily Housing Programs requires that the owner must place security deposits in a segregated, interest bearing-account, the balance of which must at all times be equal to the total amount collected from the eligible family plus any accrued interest. Cause: The Project?s sponsor and management company experienced turnover in their accounting department during the year which caused a shift in assigned duties and responsibilities. During that shift in assigned duties there was a lapse in assigned responsibility for the transfer of security deposits. Effect of Condition: This condition resulted in required deposits not being transferred to a segregated account causing the balance to be unequal to the amount collected from the eligible family. Recommendation: We recommend that the Project?s sponsor verify, on a monthly basis, the required security deposit asset and liability account equal. b. Action(s) Taken or Planned on the Finding 1. The Project?s sponsor is aware of the requirement to move eligible family deposits into a segregated account and are working with new accounting staff to ensure that the proper transfers are completed in the future. 2. In September 2022, the security deposits were transferred to a segregated account equaling the amount collected from the eligible family.

Condition: The College?s report for the third calendar quarter of 2022 was not posted to the College?s website by the required date.

Cause: The third calendar quarter student funds report was not posted by the requied date and was posted on October 11, 2021. Effect: The College was not in compliance with the reporting requirements of the contracts. Recommendation: We recommend management track all reporting due dates related to the contracts and establish timelines within the College?s accounting and finance team to ensure that all reports are submitted by the required due dates. The tracking system used should be available for all necessary employees and training should be included with onboarding of employees.

2022-001 Agency: U.S. Department of Education Assistance Listing Number: 84.007, 84.033, 84.038, 84.063, 84.268, and 84.379 Program: Student Financial Aid Program Cluster Condition: Management?s review of the Return of Title IV (R2T4) calculation did not detect errors on the dates used in the calculation. We identified the federal aid refunds for students in the Fall 2021 semester were not calculated correctly resulting the incorrect amount being refunded. Criteria: The College is responsible for designing, implementing and maintaining internal control over compliance for special tests and provisions and for accurately calculating the R2T4 refund. When a recipient of Title IV grant or loan assistance withdrawals from an institution during a payment period, Title IV regulations (34 CFR 668.22) require the College to determine the amount of Title IV grant or loan assistance that the student earned as of the withdrawal date and return the unearned portion of the grant or loan to the Title IV program as soon as possible but no later than 45 days after the withdrawal date. Questioned costs: The amount of questioned costs was $1,062. Context: We tested three (3) students out of eleven (11) students that received a refund. Seven (7) of the eleven (11) student refunds occurred in the fall semester. Cause: The College?s internal control over compliance did not detect and correct the errors. Management has indicated the R2T4 calculation was not correctly calculated as the dates entered into the software were outdated due to the semester dates changing. Effect: The College processed R2T4?s incorrectly and returned the incorrect amount of funds and the College?s internal controls over compliance did not detect and correct the errors. Recommendation: We recommend management review their processes and controls in place to ensure appropriate refunds are made relating to Title IV grant funding. Corrective Action Plan: The Associate Director will request the academic year calendar directly from Academic Dean?s office prior to setting up R2T4 parameters in Department of Education?s Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) system each semester. After student financial aid personnel enter the semester dates in COD, the Director or Associate Director will verify the dates entered agree to the academic calendar. Responsible Person: Katie Sprunger, Associate Director Implementation Date: Immediate
