My dad recently sent me over 400 through PayPal to help me pay for tuition but PayPal put a hold on it for 21 days, is there any easier way to get the money sooner so I can pay for my classes? It keeps telling me that it’s because my account is new or that I haven’t had much activity on there

Sounds as if he sent the funds using goods/services and not family/friends so paypal saw you as a seller and applied the new seller hold.
Try this...........
Mark the item as shipped in the PayPal transaction details, and that should open up the capability for your dad to go into the transaction details on their side, and acknowledge receipt of the item. That may allow the payment to be completed.
