Yes, that absolutely counts as an extenuating circumstance. Have your counselor notify it on their recommendation letter. Since there’s a reason behind your lowered GPA, Brown will look past it as you are spending time to financially support your family. Also, because you attend a highly ranked school, you are already ahead of the game.

Brown is within reach, but with a 9% acceptance rate, its a reach for everyone. What’s your exact class rank (percentage-wise)?
