Exactly. I speak from experience as, when I was an undergraduate, I had to request a retroactive withdrawal after my mom passed away unexpectedly. Towards my senior year, an Academic Adviser asked me why I had two semesters of crummy grades and, after I explained, she suggested I appeal for the retroactive withdrawal. Because the committee granted my request, my GPA went back up considerably and qualified me to apply for grad school.
