<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

I go to a state school in the US and I received a $5,000/yr scholarship.  My first semester in school really messed me up and I ended up with a 2.79 GPA.  Second semester I got my ass into gear and got a 3.87, but unfortunately my scholarship requires that I keep a 3.5 cumulative GPA to renew.  My father thinks that I had a 3.0 first semester and that the scholarship only needs a 3.4 renew.  He was almost in tears telling me how proud he was of me when I came home from my dismal first semester (which did dip me into a small state of depression). I would also like to add that I have seen my dad cry about twice my entire life (I am 19).  

My family is not rich by any stretch of the mind and there isn't an extra $5,000 a year just floating around.  Whatever costs of my education that aren't covered by this scholarship are picked up by government grants and a government loan.  I really don't know how to go about telling my dad about this.  He was so proud of me and I don't want to break his heart and tell him that I lost my scholarship.  I also know that I have to tell him soon because I can't afford to go to school next year without finding somewhere else to get a loan from.

Reddit I just need some advice on how to talk to him and I also just needed to get this off of my chest and tell someone.
<bot>: I lost the scholarship to my school and my father doesn't know yet and I don't know how to tell him.
