2025-002 Federal Program - Student Financial Assistance Cluster -Assistance Listing Nos. 84.063, Federal Pell Grant Program and 84.268 Federal Direct Student Loans U.S. Department of Education Program Year 2024-2025 - Enrollment Reporting Finding Summary: The University is required to report enrollment information to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) when changes occur related to enrollment statuses, program information, and effective dates within a specified time. Recommendation: The University should establish controls designed to facilitate accurate reporting of students' enrollment information to NSLDS within the required time frame. Additionally, the University should enhance controls addressing circumstances in which students unofficially withdraw. Action taken in response to finding: The Office of Registrar implemented a revised end-of-term procedure. Effective immediately, all students who are unofficially withdrawn for the semester- defined as students who have failed all courses or have a combination of official withdrawcJls and fa ilures for all enrolled courses- will have their enrollment status manually updated to withdrawn in the National Student Clearinghouse (NCS) reporting process, which from there is reported to NSLDS. In addition, the Office of Registrar will provide to the Office of Financial Aid a list of these students at the end of each term. This will allow Financial Aid to verify that NSC updates NSLDS accurately and within the required reporting timeframe . To prevent the issue of timely reporting, the Registrar's Office has implemented a reconciliation check to ensure that graduate counts are consistent across both NSC reports and align with internally generated graduate lists prior to submission.
