Does it mean I am in the waiting list?

I got a mail from Penn State as below. Does it mean I am in the waiting list? Will I have an opportunity to get a phone interview? What’s my next step? Wait for further notice?

Thanks for your suggestion.

second group

今年太多学校把applicants 分为几个groups

一般在第一个group 里面挑人，但是也不排除第一个group 用完了，来第二

group 挑人，但问题是，即使这样，如果第二group 人多的话，希望还是较小了。。。。。。。   

我有好几个这样的邮件。。。。。  我基本上把他们看作婉拒

真希望有转机。。。。。。

其他没有回应的学校建议写信去问吗?

还是表示被分在 group 3 里面了?

一起祈祷吧 ! 希望重榜的牛人会放弃 offer !

也许我们就有希望了 !
