This Finding was addressed by a retraining session held on October 15, 2024, during which staff and faculty discussed the reasons this Finding occurred. All parties were reminded that impartial SAP compliance monitors, and not faculty, will determine when a student should be administratively withdrawn for non-participation(un-offcial withdrawal), according to school policy. This will that un-official withdrawals will be addressed withing the quarter of attendance, and will ensure that R2T4 funds are returned within the regulated timeline. In addition, the institution is implementing an internal audit policy to test students at week eight or nine of the ten-week quarter who may be subject to an unoffical withdrawal. This will allow the Administration time to contact the student and administer forced withdrawal and, if needed, submit R2T4 within 45 days.

October 22, 2024 RE: Finding 2024-001 Student Financial Aid Cluster Enrollment Reporting - Clearinghouse for National Student Loan Data (NSLDS) enrollment reporting for the Fall 2023 and Spring 2024 semesters. Student Affair’s response and corrective action plan. Purpose of Student Reporting Student enrollment reporting is critical, as it is sent to the National Student Clearinghouse, which then provides this data to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). This information is used to determine students' enrollment status, which is essential for the administration of financial aid, particularly for calculating grace periods and repayment timelines for student loans. Corrective Actions and Process Changes Once we identified the reporting issue, we re-ran the reports using the previous method, prior to the saved list implementation, to compare the results. We thoroughly reviewed the enrollment numbers for both semesters to ensure all students were correctly reported. In addition, we contacted the National Student Clearinghouse to make the necessary corrections. To ensure this issue is fully resolved moving forward, we have implemented a more rigorous internal process, including thorough testing and random sampling. We now compare reported enrollment data against actual student enrollment for each semester, allowing us to verify that all students are accurately reported. These enhanced measures will safeguard against similar oversights in the future. Challenges with Clearinghouse Resolution While we completed our internal corrections, we experienced significant delays in finalizing the data updates due to customer service challenges on the National Student Clearinghouse’s side. After escalating the issue, we were able to receive assistance from a representative on October 23rd, which we believe will resolve the discrepancies. Expected completion date: 10/31/24 Partys Responsible: Dr. Jason Johnson, Vice President for Student Affairs - Amanda Williams- Mize, Assistant Vice President for Enrollment Services, Registrar Contact Information: jason.k.johnson@occc.edu 405-682-1611 ext. 7784 amanda.williams-mize@occc.edu, 405-682-7537

Independence Housing Authority (IHA) received an audit finding for failing to properly document the reinspection of a failed HQS inspection. During the previous year, IHA had 3 contractors inspecting for HCV and not using the internal software which led to multiple issues including missing documentation. IHA hired a full time, HQS/NSPIRE certified inspector in August 2023 to ensure HQS inspections are completed in a timely manner and within regulation. IHA has also purchased the BOB.AI software which monitors and schedules upcoming initial, reinspection’s, annual and special inspection requests. Inspection letters are generated in this program as well as results/finding items. Inspections spreadsheets have been created for tracking purposes by the HCV Director. The inspector reviews his weekly schedule with the HCV Director for accuracy.

In order to remedy the situation, IHA has revised its internal monthly checklist to ensure that interfund transfers are cleared on a monthly basis to prevent the accumulation of interfund receivables and payables. IHA will also strengthen its cash management practices by reviewing and reconciling inter-program balances on a monthly basis.

Condition: The District did not comply with the required standards of Support of Salaries and Wages, because employees who time was charged to federal grants during fiscal year PAR, were completed for May and June before the time had occurred. Criteria: The distribution of the salaries and wages of employees are to be supported by either time certification or personnel activity reports or equivalent documentation which meets the standards in Subsection 8.h (5) of the OMB Circular A-87 Part 225 Appendix B. The certification for employees who work on one cost objective must be prepared at least semi-annually. Personnel activity reports (PAR) for employees who work on multiple activities or cost objectives must be prepared at least monthly and meet certain prescribed standards, such as accounting for the employee’s total compensation, and reflecting an after-the-fact distribution of the actual activity of each employee. The costs of such compensation are allowable to the extent that they satisfy that specific requirement of this and other appendices under 2 CFR Part 225, and that the total compensation for the individual employees: (3) is determined and supported as provided in Subsection h. (8. Compensation for Personal Services. A. (3)). Questioned Costs: There are no questioned costs. Effect: It is more likely that the extent of effort charged to the various cost objectives may not be representative of the related time devoted to the respective cost objectives. Cause: District did not have a system in place to ensure the District complied with the required standards of Support of Salaries and Wages for an employee who needed to complete monthly or semi-annual certifications and that the time allocation on the grant is reported accurately. Corrective Action: A comprehensive tracking plan has been implemented to ensure the costs objectives associated with each employee for each period is tracked and PAR is returned for the corresponding period. Corrective Action Implemented by: The Corrective Action will be implemented by Robert Farrier, School Business Administrator in conjunction with Treasurer Kelly Kilmer. Corrective Action Implementation Date: This corrective action plan has already been implemented on 9/15/24.
