SchD_P03_S00_L01Schedule D, Part III, Line 1As stated in the University's audited financial statements, note B, "The University has a collection of art objects, most of which were contributed to the University. The value of these objects is not recorded in the accompanying statement of financial position. The University's Board of Regents has given the authority to sell a significant portion of the collection. While management has been given the authority, it does not currently intend to dispose any significant portion of these art objects. Management will sell or transfer ownership of an art object if it is ever determined that that art object no longer furthers the University's mission.
SchD_P03_S00_L04Schedule D, Part III, Line 4The University has a collection of art objects, most of which were contributed to the University without solicitation. Nearly all of these objects are paintings or sculptures; many share religious themes, which are consistent with the University's Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod heritage and belief. The objects help the University further its exempt status by providing an overall campus environment conducive of education and learning, acting as educational tools used to demonstrate varying artistic styles and themes, and providing a connection to the University's mission statement by demonstrating the values of "creativity, competence and compassion."
SchD_P05_S00_L04Schedule D, Part V, Line 4Donations given to Concordia University Foundation are for endowments that ultimately assist Concordia University's educational and religious activities. Donors have placed restrictions on the endowment payout in the following ways: 1) financial aid given to Concordia University students, 2) support for Concordia University's Student Services and Academics, and 3) support of Concordia University's maintenance and operations of plant and University general operations.
SchD_P10_S00_L02Schedule D, Part X, Line 2The University and the Foundation are organizations described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of 1986, as amended and, as such, are exempt from federal income tax on income earned related to exempt activities under IRC Section 501(a). In addition, the IRC has determined that the University and Foundation are not private foundations within the meaning of Section 509(c) of the IRC. The FASB issued guidance that requires tax effects from uncertain positions to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. Management has determined there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition in the consolidated financial statements. The tax years ended 2010, 2011 and 2012 are still open to audit for both federal and state purposes.

ExplanationStudent's eligibility to receive financial assistance from Concordia University Chicago is determined by policy approved by the Board of Regents. On a basis of careful analysis of the financial statements, the Director of Financial Aid determines the amount of aid available from various sources. Next, the amount that the student and his or her family can reasonably be expected to provide is calculated. The difference is called "demonstrated need." Financial assistance is awarded based on the student's demonstrated need for that year. Concordia-Chicago provides scholarships. All recipients are unrelated except for tuition benefits provided under Concordia-Chicago's tuition grant program to eligible employees, their spouses, and dependents. This tuition grant program is in accordance with IRC section 117(d). Concordia University Chicago also provides student assistance through work-study.Explanation

ExplanationIRS instructions to Form 990 require that the fair market value of housing provided to employees by their employer be reported on Form 990, Part VII, Section A and Schedule J, Part II. As a condition of employment, the President of the University is required to reside on campus premises. The residence serves both as a personal residence as well as a venue for carrying out University business. The University has determined that the value of the use of the personal residence is not considered taxable income to the President as provided in Internal Revenue Code Section 119. For tax year 2012, the President's use of the residence is conservatively estimated to be $42,000. This estimated value is based on the fair rental value of $3,500 per month for similar houses in the area. This value includes maintenance of the property, landscaping and snow removal.Explanation

F990_P01_S00_L06Form 990, Part I, Line 6The Cougar Corps is the name given to all volunteers who share their time with Concordia University Chicago. During fiscal year 2013, members of the Cougar Corps, including current students, Board Members, staff, faculty, alumni, parents, and community members contributed more than 1,500 hours of service to Concordia University. Additionally, in 2013, Concordia University was named to the United States President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for the fifth time in seven years. This federal recognition is the highest a college or university can receive for its commitment to volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement. Nearly 46 percent of students gave back to the community through 6,892 service hours.
F990_P06_S0A_L07aForm 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 7aAccording to Concordia University's bylaws, membership on the Board of Regents shall be elected in the following manner: Three (3) Regents shall be elected by the Northern Illinois District of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod in years divisible by three (3) with a remainder of two (2). Five (5) Regents shall be elected at the Convention of Synod in years evenly divisible by three (3). Four (4) Regents shall be elected by the Board of Regents for years divisible by three (3) with a remainder of one (1). Furthermore, members of the Board of Regents may elect up to four (4) additional members at any time.
F990_P06_S0B_L11bForm 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11bThere are several distinct steps that Concordia follows with its IRS Form 990 Review Process. A first draft was prepared by Concordia's Controller and a top level review was performed by University Management. After this initial review, an updated draft was sent to the University's auditor, Grant Thornton. Grant Thornton performed an in depth review of the first draft, requested support documentation for numerous parts of the 990, and provided items for the Controller to consider, verify, and/or correct. The Controller incorporated these items and developed a second draft of the Form 990. Upon completion of the second draft the Controller forwarded the draft, Grant Thornton's list of items, and the Controller's responses to those items to the University's VP for Finance and CFO, who performed an in depth review. Upon completion of this review, the draft was sent to Grant Thornton, along with the Controller's response to their items and changes, if any, identified after their initial review. Grant Thornton performed its final review and provided the Controller with the near final draft. The Controller forwarded the near final draft to the members of the Board of Regents' Finance Committee. This Committee was authorized, through Board Resolution, to act on behalf of the entire Board to review and approve the IRS Form 990. The Finance Committee was given approximately one week to review the IRS Form 990. During this review, members of the Committee emailed the Controller with questions and comments, if any. The Controller compiled these items and amended the 990, as needed. The Controller then sent the Committee the updated return, along with the compiled list of Committee questions and comments. Shortly after sending the return to the Committee, a Finance Committee meeting was held, during which the IRS Form 990 was finalized. Once finalized, the Committee, through resolution, voted to approve the filing of the IRS Form 990. After this vote, the Controller sent the entire Board of Regents a copy of the final Form 990. The Board of Regents was asked to review the return. After approximately one week, the Controller filed the final, approved, IRS Form 990. While not anticipated, if a question or concern expressed by a member of the Board of Regent at an upcoming Board meeting resulted in a need to correct the already filed return, the Controller would immediately file an amended return.
F990_P06_S0B_L12cForm 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cConcordia University Chicago is fully committed to conducting its responsibilities in a manner reflecting the highest degree of integrity and honesty. The success of Concordia in conducting its affairs is the sum effort of each Board, Committee, and Cabinet member in conducting his or her responsibilities with good judgment and in an ethical manner. Therefore, without exception, each member is to comply with Concordia's Conflict of Interest Policy. As such upon appointment, and annually thereafter, each member is asked to read, acknowledge understanding, and agree to comply with, Concordia's Conflict of Interest Policy. As part of this process, each member is asked to disclose personal potential conflict of interest. All such disclosures are reported to the Board and Concordia's President, who determine whether a potential conflict of interest exists. In the event that it is determined that a conflict does exist, the Member is prohibited in participating in all deliberations and decisions associated with all activities involving the related organization. In the event that that it is discovered that any inappropriate activity does occur related to an actual conflict of interest, the relevant Member's position would be immediately vacated.
F990_P06_S0B_L15Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15In addition to approving the Concordia University President's annual contract, there are several other individuals who have their salaries reviewed and approved by the Finance Committee of the Board of Regents. These individuals include the President's Cabinet and all individuals who have the ability to affect employees' compensation. This includes all members of the Human Resources and Payroll departments, as well as the University's Controller, Assistant Controller and Director of Budget Services. Annually, the Director of Human Resources and the Assistant Controller provide the Board with these individuals' compensation, as well as comparative data from similar universities. Once the data is reviewed, annual compensation increases for these individuals is either approved or rejected. This approval or rejection is document through a formal board resolution of the Concordia University Board of Regents.
F990_P06_S0C_L19Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19Concordia University makes its Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, Conflict of Interest Policy, Whistle Blower Policy, IRS Form 990 and audited financial statements available to the general public on its website.
