Each year the University is subject to various financial audits which are performed by internal, Board of Regents, state of Georgia, private, and federal auditors. Overall, these audits generally confirm the University's commitment to accurate financial reporting, adherence to policy and procedure and appropriate maintenance of internal controls. However, there is room for improvement.

The Controller’s Division is sponsoring a series of programs to increase awareness of various fiscal management issues. The first program in the series is called “Fiscal Management @ UGA: My Responsibility”. This program will include an overview of recent UGA audit results performed by internal and external auditors and will highlight the key fiscal areas in which the University receives “findings” and low audit scores: petty cash and P-Cards, departmental sales and revenue recognition, and internal control exceptions. Find out how the financial transactions generated in your department play a major role in the overall health of the financial reporting and internal control systems of the University. As leaders in your units, you’ll learn more about your fiscal responsibilities at UGA.

If you have questions about the Fiscal Management @ UGA programs, please contact Holley Schramski at 706-542-6860.
