I had to graduate in 3 years so I could pay for flight training. I was taking 20-25 credits per semester and during one semester I tanked as a family member was terminally ill. Out of my 6 semesters, all but one had a GPA of 3.4 or so.

How can I explain (on my app) this situation so I can reduce the negatively of the 2.9?
