Did you get accepted to Penn State because my status reads the same, I am applying for the fall 2024 masters in cybersecurity program

Hello, I submitted my application for the Master's Program at Penn State on January 3rd, 2024, for the fall 2024 program. Initially, my current status indicated, "The initial phase of the admission process has been completed. Your application is now pending review by the program/plan of study admissions committee. Please be patient; you will be contacted by the program/plan of study directly when a decision has been made. Questions should be directed to your intended program/plan of study." Since last Saturday, the status has changed to, "The Graduate School has received your application. If you have any questions regarding your application, please contact your intended program/plan of study." Does this mean that the department has accepted or rejected my application? On the Penn State website, I found the following information: "Determination of Eligibility: The Graduate School confirms eligibility for admission of all graduate degree applicants, while programs select and recommend applicants for offers of admission. Final approval of admission to all graduate degree programs lies with the Graduate School." I am bit confused if this is just a change in status or an indicator that a decision has been made and the grad school has the final say about my eligibility.
