A quick definition of malicious abandonment:

Malicious abandonment is when someone intentionally leaves or abandons someone or something without any care or concern for their well-being. This can be harmful and dangerous, especially if the person or thing being abandoned is dependent on the one leaving. It is a cruel and selfish act that can cause harm and suffering to those left behind.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Malicious abandonment is when someone intentionally leaves or abandons another person who is dependent on them, without any regard for their safety or well-being. This can be a form of abuse or neglect.

Example: A parent who leaves their young child alone at home for days without any food or supervision is committing malicious abandonment.

Explanation: In this example, the parent is intentionally leaving their child alone without any care or concern for their safety or well-being. This is a form of neglect and can have serious consequences for the child's physical and emotional health. Malicious abandonment is a serious issue and can result in legal consequences for the person who commits it.

@mastermonkey45: Looking at some of the recent decisions in relation to when they went complete, I'd say it's a good sign. It seems many declines were sent within about 5-6 weeks of completion. Given those were applications that were SENT in January, I'd say that means you're still solidly in the running. :)

Sent an app to OSU in early december and have STILL not heard back
Give it 4 more weeks at least. Everyone in this chat needs to wait longer.

It is frustrating when people are admitted who applied after you. But that’s just part of the game I guess
