QUESTIONED COSTSOTHER MATTERS

The University did not properly award Pell for distance education/modular students when the student had enrollment changes in the term. Criteria: 34 CFR 690.63(b) Questioned Costs: $1,042 Context: Out of 38 students tested student, 2 students were not awarded the correct amount of Pell based on enrollment status. 1 student was originally awarded at ? but attended ? time, resulting in an $812 under award of Pell. This student was corrected as part of the audit process. 1 student withdrew from the term but did not have Pell recalculated for ? enrollment prior to the R2T4 calculation resulting in a net over award of $1,042. Cause: These were oversights due to changing enrollment status. Effect: Pell was not awarded correctly based on enrollment status resulting in an incorrect amount of Pell disbursed to these students Identification as repeat finding, if applicable: not applicable. Recommendation: We recommend a process be used to adjust Pell to be paid in alignment with enrollment status.
