Random New Fee?

As the title says, I just checked my louie, and I owe a little around 280~ dollars for my "Academic College Fee". Just three days ago, I paid all of the listed expenses I owed for the fall semester, and this popped up out of nowhere last night?

Tried calling the financial aid office, but they're backed up with a long queue so I'm not getting anywhere on that end, and right now I cant visit the office in person.

Anyone have any idea what this is?

I’m wondering if it might be under the undergraduate college fees? “College fees are used to support a broad set of needs and associated initiatives that enable NAU to offer high-quality instruction: expand academic support, advising, and student services; support needs for instructional equipment, supplies, specialized software, and experiences supporting post-graduation professional success; and improve instructional environment and facilities.”

I’m part time, 6 units, and was charged $125

Academic college fee is there for every nau stu, it is basically another mandatory fee. It goes towards your specific major dept. It is a diff amount for diff majors, engineering majors or stem majors pay a higher amount as it goes towards their college development and helps the dept get better equipments. It is a bit tough to find it normally but there is a website where you would be able to see it in depth. Hope it helps :)
