there is no such thing as a "soft rejection"

"continuing review" "under review" "pending review" etc etc etc
means you are under review
please, just wait and be patient
the only rejection is when you get an actual rejection
not hearing anything means they haven't made a decision yet
yes, some schools never reject, even all the way through the end
but PLEASE do not read anything into anything other than a rejection
I know it's tough to wait, but that's all anyone can do at this point

good luck to you all

This right here is just what I'm sure a lot of us needed. Aloha, Steve.

bumping this to include "on hold" and "interview waitlist" and all other variations...

Following up:

Remember there are really three post-II options: accept now, reject now, or deferred decision (like waitlist or alternate).
