Management decision deadline — for entities that funded this organization
The FAC accepted this audit on March 3, 2026. Under 2 CFR 200.521(d), a pass-through entity that provided federal funds to this organization for this audit period must issue a management decision on these findings by September 3, 2026 (today).
What is a management decision? →2025-001 Enrollment Reporting Federal Program – U.S. Department of Education (ED), Student Financial Assistance Cluster, Federal Pell Grant Program, CFDA 84.063; Federal Direct Student Loan Program, CFDA 84.268. Program Year – July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2025 Criteria or Specific Requirement – Special Tests and Provisions – Enrollment Reporting – Under the Pell grant and loan programs, colleges must complete and return within 15 days the Enrollment Reporting roster file. Once received, the institution must update for changes in the data elements for the Campus Record and the Program Record identified above, and submit the changes electronically through the batch method, spreadsheet submittal, or the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) website. Colleges are responsible for timely reporting, whether they report directly or via a third-party servicer. When a Direct Loan was made to or on behalf of a student who was enrolled or accepted for enrollment at the institution, and the student ceased to be enrolled on at least a halftime basis or failed to enroll on at least a half-time basis for the period for which the loan was intended; or a student who is enrolled at the institution and who received a loan under Title IV has changed his or her permanent address, the institution must report the change in its next updated Enrollment Reporting Roster file (due within 60 days of the change). Condition – Notification of the student status change (graduated, withdrew, less than half-time) did not reach the NSLDS within the required time frame. In addition, the status change per the College’s records did not consistently match what was reported in the NSLDS’s enrollment detail. Questioned Costs – None. Context – From a sample of 25 students selected from a population of 808 students who received Pell grants or loans and had a status change during the year, timely notification to NSLDS was not provided for eight of the students tested. For these eight students, the status change was not reported within the required 60 day timeframe. In addition, for seven other students selected for testing, the status change was not reported accurately. Our sampling method was not, and was not intended to be, statistically valid. Effect – Student status changes exceeded the 60-day period for student enrollment changes reported in roster files. In addition, student status changes were not accurately reported. Cause – The College did not consistently report enrollment changes within 60 days. Identification as a Repeat Finding – 2024-002, 2023-003. Recommendation – We recommend the College develop and implement procedures to help ensure all student status changes and errors in enrollment reporting batch process are reported within the required timeframes. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions – Concur. The College will review and update current procedures to ensure timely processing and monitoring of NSLDS reports. Internal reports will be run simultaneously to make sure all students are captured and their status is correctly reported.

Finding Number 2025-001. Enrollment Reporting - The College hired a full-time Registrar in December 2025. Upon onboarding, the Registrar will collaborate with the College’s third-party consultant(s) to conduct a comprehensive review and re-evaluation of the enrollment reporting configuration and associated business processes. This review will ensure alignment with federal reporting requirements and institutional best practices. During this review period, the Registrar and the Financial Aid Office will jointly implement ongoing monitoring procedures to ensure that all students are accurately captured and that enrollment statuses are correctly and timely reported to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). These monitoring controls will remain in place until the enrollment reporting system and processes are fully vetted and validated for compliance. Anticipated Completion Date - February 28, 2026.

Return of Title IV Funds Federal Program – U.S. Department of Education (ED), Student Financial Assistance Cluster, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant Program, #84.007; Federal Work-Study Program, #84.033; Federal Pell Grant Program, #84.063; Federal Direct Student Loan Program, #84.268. Program Year – July 1, 2023 - June 30, 2024 Criteria or Specific Requirement – Special Tests and Provisions – Return of Title IV Funds – When a recipient of Title IV grant or loan assistance withdraws from an institution during a payment period or period of enrollment in which the recipient began attendance, the institution must determine the amount of Title IV aid earned by the student as of the student’s withdrawal date. If the total amount of Title IV assistance earned by the student is less than the amount that was disbursed to the student or on his or her behalf as of the date of the institution’s determination that the student withdrew, the difference must be returned to the Title IV programs as outlined in this section and no additional disbursements may be made to the student for the payment period or period of enrollment. If the amount the student earned is greater than the amount disbursed, the difference between the amounts must be treated as a post-withdrawal disbursement (34 CFR 668.22(a)(1) through (a)(5)). Condition – The College utilized an incorrect academic term for use in its Return to Title IV calculations. This error was caught by management and corrected after the period the return of Title IV funds were due. Questioned Costs – None. Context – A sample of 36 was selected from a population of 234 recipients that were subject to return of Title IV funds calculation. The College incorrectly calculated the number of days in the academic term for two recipients. This error was corrected by management 45 days after the institution became aware the students had withdrawn, the period which the return of Title IV funds were due. Effect – Due to the incorrect number of days used in the academic term for the return of funds calculation, the College did not calculate correctly the return of Title IV funds calculations for two students when the return of Title IV funds were due. Cause – The College incorrectly calculated the days that should be included in the academic term used in the return of Title IV calculation and did not correct on a timely basis. Identification as a Repeat Finding – 2023-001. Recommendation – We recommend the College implement policies and procedures to review, update, and verify academic term information used for the return of Title IV funds calculations on a timely basis. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions – Concur. The College will review and update current written policies and procedures to ensure the correct amount of days are used for the academic term in the timely return of Title IV funds calculation.

2019-001 Enrollment Reporting Federal Program ? U.S. Department of Education (ED), Student Financial Assistance Cluster, Federal Pell Grant Program, CFDA 84.063; Federal Direct Student Loan Program, CFDA 84.268. Program Year ? July 1, 2018 - June 30, 2019 Criteria or Specific Requirement ? Special Tests and Provisions ? Enrollment Reporting ? Under the Pell grant and loan programs, colleges must complete and return within 30 days the Enrollment Reporting roster file. Once received, the College must update for changes in student status, report the date the enrollment status was effective, enter the new anticipated completion date, and submit the changes electronically through the batch method or the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) website. Colleges are responsible for timely reporting, whether they report directly or via a third-party servicer. Unless the College expects to complete its next roster within 60 days, the College must notify the lender or the guaranty agency within 30 days, if it discovers that a student who received a Pell grant or loan either did not enroll or ceased to be enrolled on at least a half-time basis. Condition ? Notification of the student status change (graduated, withdrew, less than half-time) did not reach the NSLDS within the required time frame. In addition, the status change per the College?s records did not consistently match what was reported in the NSLDS?s enrollment detail. Questions Costs ? None. Context ? Out of a sample of 40 students from a population of 1,527 students receiving Pell grants or loans and which had a change in status during the year, NSLDS was not provided timely notification for 2 of the student status changes reported and tested. In addition, 3 of the 40 selected for testing had the incorrect status reported. Our sampling method was not, and was not intended to be, statistically valid. Effect ? Student status changes exceeded the 60-day period for student enrollment changes reported in roster files. Also, certain student status changes were incorrectly reported. Cause ? The College did not consistently report enrollment changes within 60 days. In addition, the status changes were not correctly reported and resulted in discrepancies in various student?s status when comparing the College?s records verse NSLDS?s enrollment detail. Identification as a Repeat Finding ? 2018-001, 2017-001 and 2016-002. Recurrence due to staff transition and also management working developing procedures to ensure all status changes are correctly reported within the required timeframe. Recommendation ? We recommend the College develop and implement procedures to help ensure all student status changes and errors in enrollment reporting batch process are reported within the required timeframes. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions ? Concur. The College will review and update current procedures to ensure timely processing and monitoring of NSLDS reports. The College will also monitor errors in enrollment and correct them within the specified timeframe. Internal reports will be run simultaneously to make sure all students are captured and their status is correctly reported.
