Accepted IB SA Offer but Had to Graduate One Year Later Than Expected

I accepted a penultimate year 2024 SA offer for a BB in NY. However, I had to graduate one year late due to family reasons. 

What's the best strategy for me now? How can I approach the bank with this? Will my offer be immediately revoked and I will be blacklisted? 

Looking for some past similar experiences or insights. Thanks!
