Yes, or prove that there were severe extenuating circumstances (death in the immediate family, lengthy sickness, learning disability, etc...) and that the PNM made a sincere effort with respect to academics to offset that circumstance.
Just because there is a special circumstance doesn't mean the chapter has to do anything about it, though. Some won't allow exceptions, no matter the reason.
