AI Summary

  • Core Issue: The University failed to report enrollment status for 3 out of 40 students accurately and on time to NSLDS.
  • Impacted Requirements: Non-compliance with 34 CFR Section 685.309 regarding timely updates to student enrollment status.
  • Recommended Follow-Up: Implement a process to ensure all enrollment changes are reported to NSLDS within the required 30 or 60 days.

Finding Text

Criteria: Per 34 CFR Section 685.309, institutions with direct loan programs must complete and return to the National Student Loan Data System for Students (NSLDS) within 30 days the enrollment reporting roster file provided by NSLDS, unless the school expects to complete the next roster within 60 days, then they must return it within 60 days. The institution must update changes in student status, report the date the enrollment status was effective, enter the new anticipated completion date, and then submit changes electronically to the NSLDS, for the purpose of providing complete and accurate data to lenders regarding enrollment status so they may properly determine when repayment of the loans should begin. Condition and Context: During our test work over 40 students that withdrew or graduated during the year, we identified 3 students in which the University did not accurately and timely report the enrollment status to NSLDS.
