Dismissed
The veteran withdrew the appeal for a waiver of indebtedness resulting from an overpayment of housing allowance benefits under the Post-9/11 GI Bill.
The deciding factor: The withdrawal was received prior to the issuance of a decision on the merits of the claim by the Board, and the requirements to perfect a withdrawal have been met.

What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.
