Corrective Action Plan from College:
This is submitted to Derrick Everhart, Director of Financial Aid, by the College Registrar Brooke Millsaps. In order to correct the need to have a monitoring mechanism in place, the College has taken the following actions:
● Warren Wilson College convened a group of stakeholders to review our exit and withdrawal procedures. This group included representatives from the following offices: Financial Aid, Registrar, tudent Accounts, Student Engagement, Office of the Provost.
● The group revised our procedures when a student indicates they want to leave the College. These revised procedures include the following:
1. Developed a specific chart to determine the classification of the student, the time of year of the action, and the circumstances of the action: See Corrective Action Plan for chart / table.
2. Removed a student's ability to complete the exit form once classes started in order to prevent an erroneous student exit 3. Implemented an Administrative Exit - census verification process . This allows the college the opportunity to verify through roster verification, work participation, and residential status if a student should be administratively exited.
4. As a result of this revised institutional procedure, the Office of the Registrar reviewed and revised its procedures regarding exits and withdrawals to ensure that we are documenting accurate information in the appropriate locations within Jenzabar. This will ensure that when we report data to the National Student Clearinghouse, the associated exits and withdrawal dates are in alignment.
Management Response : The Director of Financial Aid concurs with this finding and noted while the College was out of compliance with the reporting timeframe, the College did make a substantial effort to complete the requirements and follow up with NSLDS and NSC to correct the students enrollment.
