Please help me continue my college education

Donation protected
My name is Francesca Horner. I am current a freshman at Albright College, and I need some help to continue my college journey. I have a 3.7 GPA and am double majoring in Criminology and Game Simulation and Design. I wish to one day be able to code video games or potentially go into computer forensics. I have worked exceptionally hard through all the years of my schooling in order to get scholarships, so I could attend college.  I am a member of my school's varsity eSports team, and I am the president of the eSports club. I am applying to jobs over the summer, my mom is working two jobs, and my dad is transitioning to another job.

We are going through financial struggles and even though my parents work, with the combination of rent, car payments and other monthly expenses, we barely make ends meet (and thats before tuition payments my parents have been struggling to pay).  However, before I can become a Sophomore, my school is saying that we owe $5,500, and we are unable to pay it. My parents are tapping into their retirement fund and the longer we wait, more interest adds on the balance. I would love to continue my education, but if I cannot pay this amount, I may not be able to.  

If we do not get the money before May 28th, I will have to drop my internship, and if we cannot pay before July I will not be able to register for next semester's classes and likely lose my Presidential Scholarship and grant money (which is the only reason I can go to college in the first place) .  If my goal is exceeded, any additional funds will be put toward books/supplies and tuition for next semester. I would appreciate any help in achieving this goal. Thank you for helping me continue my education and giving me the opportunity to pursue my dream job.
