Individuals Responsible for Corrective Action Plan: •Dr. Lee Skinkle, VPAA •Elizbeth Geisz, Registrar •Melissa Waters, Senior Director Student Administration and Compliance Condition: The University did not report students’ status changes accurately and within the required timeframe. Management’s Corrective Action Plan: 1.Improved Identification of Withdrawals Per the University’s attendance policy, the Academics team promptly reviews students who haveceased academic activity for 14 consecutive days. Students meeting this criterion are identified androuted to the Registrar’s Office for processing as unofficial withdrawals within the required federaltimeframe. This procedure ensures timely and accurate reporting of enrollment status changes andeliminates the need to backdate information in the SIS, NSC, and NSLDS. 2.Refined Enrollment and Registration Deadlines Enrollment and registration deadlines have been tightened and communicated across alldepartments. Reducing late registration activity minimizes backdated actions that can result ininaccurate program-level and campus-level effective dates in NSC and NSLDS reporting. 3.Review and Adjustment of the Dismissal Timeline The dismissal process timeline is being reviewed and updated to ensure students have sufficienttime to meet enrollment and registration deadlines for subsequent academic periods. This reduceslate or retroactive enrollment-status changes that affect NSLDS timeliness. 4.Enhanced Quality Assurance for Enrollment Reporting Monthly quality checks will be performed on reports related to withdrawals, graduations, programchanges, and registration activity prior to submission to the NSC. These checks will specificallyverify: •Accuracy of program begin dates and program enrollment effective dates, •Accuracy and timeliness of campus-level enrollment status changes, and •Compliance with the 30-day/60-day federal reporting requirement. 5.Monitoring of NSC Transmission and NSLDS Reporting Timelines The University will monitor NSC transmission cycles and verify that all required enrollment changesare submitted in time to meet federal requirements under 34 CFR 685.309. 6.Updated Procedures and Staff Training Revised procedures outlining updated deadlines, reporting expectations, and QC steps will bedocumented and shared with all Enrollment, Registrar, and Deans. Targeted training will beprovided to ensure consistent and accurate implementation of these requirements. Anticipated Completion Date: The University intends to institute these beginning of January of 2026.
