Finding Number 2025-002 Enrollment Reporting ASCC Action Plan - 3 Contact Person(s): Shanell Tilo, Financial Aid Officer, Cr. Emilia Le'i, Dean of Student Services Dr. Letupu Moananu, Vice President of Academics, Community, and Student Affairs Explanation and specific reasons for disagreement with the audit finding or that corrective action is not required (if applicable): No disagreement. Corrective actions taken/planned: The Financial Aid Office ensures strict adherence to NSLDS reporting timelines. Institutionally, enrollment is certified monthly and the school responds within 15 days of the date NSLDS issues a roster file. Any errors identified through the NSLDS are reviewed, corrected and resubmitted within 10 days. To strengthen accuracy, completeness, and compliance, the Financial Aid Office has implemented a dual-review control system; Control #1 - The Processor (Financial Aid Coordinator) is responsible for retrieving the NSLDS Enrollment Roster, performing the initial review, data entry, and status updates. Control #1 cross-checks the roster against the SIS Pell Reconciliation Report (PRER) and ARGOS Enrollment Report. Control#1 identifies and adds students who are currently enrolled and have received Title IV at ASCC or another institution. Upon completion, notifies Control #2 via email for secondary review. Control #2 The Reviewer (Financial Aid Manager) conducts a secondary review to validate accuracy and completeness. Any discrepancies are documented and returned to Control #1 for corrections if necessary. Once data is verified, Control #2 authorizes final processing. Following approval, Control #1 manually reports and adds students via NSLDS website and completes the final sign-off, confirming that all required updates have been reported accurately and timely. A confirmation email is sent documenting the date of submission. A log of all NSLDS submissions is maintained, including submission dates and supporting documentation. The log includes evidence of both the processor and reviewer sign-off to ensure proper documentation and accountability. This tracking was implemented in January 2026 and is now part of the standard operating procedures.
