Inaccurate Packaging of Federal Direct Loans (FDL) Planned Corrective Action: Shorter University will provide additional training to Financial Aid Staff regarding the importance of reviewing students financial aid offers after manual adjustments are made. The training will include practice scenarios. In addition to training staff, Shorter University's Director of Information Technology is creating a quality control report that will identify students who may be eligible for a subsidized Stafford loan but have not received one. The report will be monitored by the Assistant Director of Financial Aid Systems who will review the students' financial aid. The quality control report will ensure the proper subsidized and unsubsidized Stafford loan allocation. A manual adjustment error was made to a student's financial aid offer, after financial aid was accepted resulting in an under awarding of a Stafford loan. A $3,500 unsubsidized loan to subsidized loan swap will be completed to hold the student harm less and correct the manual adjustment error. Person Responsible for Corrective Action Plan: Colleen Lassiter Anticipated Date of Completion: Training will be completed November 8, 2024 and Quality Control Report will be completed by December 15, 2024.

The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS-FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT None noted. FINDINGS-FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS 2024-001 Compliance over Eligibility Requirements to Perform Annual Recertification - Assistance Listing No. 14.157. Program - Section 202 Supportive Housing for Elderly Persons Significant Deficiency Recommendation: Jubilee Senior Homes should develop an operating plan in order to ensure that recertifications are performed timely each year, despite of staff shortages. Action Taken: Senior management now recognizes that additional resources must be utilized during periods of progressive discipline with a frontline employee, to ensure the timely completion of recertifications. A new Manager was hired for Jubilee Senior Homes through an internal transfer and this individual is in the process of catching up on all needed paperwork as a top priority. The John Stewart Compliance Department will perform a 100% file audit upon completion of the outstanding certifications. Additionally, the assigned Regional Manager is performing monthly spot checks on files and reviewing a recertification status report for monitoring of progress and ongoing compliance. The property management company has implemented a roving support team that will assist managers who are struggling to meet their deadlines, ensuring compliance and helping to maintain performance standards moving forward. The roving support team was established in 2024, partly due to our commitment to ensure HUD deadlines are met. The property management company has also implemented monthly monitoring at their corporate office by the Property Management Document Information Specialist and HUD Secure Coordinator. This individual is monitoring monthly submissions to TRACs by all properties, and flagging underperformance on annual recertifications in addition to other HUD key performance metrics. The report of data from TRACs is circulated to Regional Managers, Directors, and senior leadership every month.

Individual Responsible for Corrective Action: Sarah Christoffersen, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action: Corrective action steps have been taken to ensure that excess cash balances are eliminated in a timely manner. The corrective action focuses on the campus-based awards, as there was only one instance of non-compliance for the FSEOG, and adds an additional step between financial aid and the finance office to verify the amount of funds disbursed to students before initiating a drawdown of funds.

Individual Responsible for Corrective Action: Sarah Christoffersen, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action: An incorrect satisfactory academic progress tracking status was assigned to a single student, which resulted in the one student receiving federal aid for the spring semester when they should have been marked as ineligible. The spring disbursement was corrected promptly when uncovered and funds have been returned to ED. An enhanced system is now in place to more clearly track the satisfactory academic progress of students who take a leave of absence from the university and return without demonstrating satisfactory academic progress at a different school.

Individual Responsible for Corrective Action: Sarah Christoffersen, Director of Financial Aid Corrective Action: This finding cumulated into three different types of issues, summarized below, and corrective action has been taken for each of the three. In addition to addressing the three issues, training has been provided to the financial aid staff for the verification process as a whole and a report is being run several times a month to identify possible data entry errors of the verification process. 3 of the 8 students had a discrepancy in their documentation that does not result in a change to their federal aid eligibility. This has been addressed by implementing an electronic signature of the verification worksheet through DocuSign. 3 of the 8 students submitted documentation for a professional judgement that was approved, however the professional judgement flag was not properly selected. This has been addressed by reviewing the professional judgement steps taken by the financial aid team and providing training to those who submit professional judgement changes in the FAFSA Partner Portal. 2 of the 8 students had incomplete documentation saved to the student file. This has been addressed by implementing an additional step in the verification process to require a second review of verification documents by two separate staff members.

The replacement plan will be completed in conjunction with the School District’s upcoming Capital Project. This work was originally expected to be included in a prior project but due to scheduling issues, is now included in the upcoming project which is expected to be completed by August 31, 2026. Retained Balance for Pending Settlements - Wages will increase into 2025 and beyond. The minimum wage in New York State is expected to continue to rise according to legislation. The rate will rise to $15.50 per hour by the end of 2024 and to $16.00 per hour by the end of 2025.

Due to the critical labor shortage, the School District recently increased hourly wages for food service helpers and cooks in order to attract additional workers to maintain operations. Enhanced Meals - The Food Service Director and Food Service Manager continue to take steps to improve food options. They include making improvements to center of the plate options and improving local food options as well.

ESTABLISH INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION AND REVIEW Recommendation: The District should review and approve the proposed auditor adjusting entries and the adequacy of schedule of the expenditures of federal awards disclosures prepared by the auditors and apply analytic procedures to the draft financial statements, among other procedures as considered necessary by management. Action Taken: The District will prepare of schedule of federal expenditures based on expenditure categories as found in the District's general ledger and value of commodities for lunch program. This will be prepared using an excel spreadsheet. The District will review the audit adjustments as presented by the external auditors including those related to the federal expenditures and the related worksheet. We will ensure the adjustments made to federal award expenditures are appropriate by examining the nature and amount of the adjustments. Questionable items will be discussed and agreed upon between the District and the auditors. After review and approval of the entries, they will be input into the District's general ledger and the SEFA spreadsheet will be updated. This will be compared to the SEFA that is included in the audit report and if they are in agreement, this will be approved by management. All variances will be addressed prior to finalization of the audit report and submission to the Nebraska. If the Nebraska Department of Education has questions regarding this plan, please call Dr. Heather Nebesniak at 308.728.5013.

Need Analysis Planned Corrective Action: To ensure compliance with Needs Analysis regulations for the limitations of keeping aid within the Cost of Attendance (COA) both during R2T4 calculations and in overall packaging, Point Loma will use system-specific configuration our new Workday Student Financial Aid software: • Disbursement Eligibility criteria that flags “Exceeds COA”, preventing disbursement • Automatic calculations of the COA based on the number of weeks in which the student is enrolled. (Our previous software required all manual review and adjustments to COA when a student was only enrolled in a single module.) Any changes to the number of weeks or to enrollment as a whole, will result in a Need Packaging Reaction, prompting staff to re-run Cost of Attendance calculations and Need Packaging as needed. Furthermore, Point Loma will review and revise procedures for mandatory recalculations of COA, and train staff on these procedures.
