Neither here nor there

Hi

In my language there is a saying whose literal translation would be something like this:

Neither here nor there

When you decide to leave one option for something better but that something better never happens.

Frank did not opt for Preston College hoping that he would get admission in TBS. But now he's neither here nor there.

Is there any English equivalent?

Thanks,

Tom
