Condition: There were no monthly direct loan reconciliations performed. Criteria: Per SFA requirements, the College is required to reconcile the COD data files with the College?s financial records. Cause: Turnover in the staff and Director positions of the College. The new employees were not aware of this requirement. Effect: Noncompliance with SFA requirements. Perspective: There has been high turnover in the SFA department, including a time where there was not a Director in place. The new Director came on in the fall of 2022 and will begin performing the monthly reconciliations as required. Recommendation: We recommend that the direct loans are reconciled at least monthly between the COD and the College?s general ledger. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Dodge City Community College staff involved have received training and been made aware of requirements. Monthly reconciliations will be performed immediately.
