Here is a brief explanation of each match:

Per se means "by or of itself only." For example, you might say that something is good per se, meaning that it is good regardless of anything else.
Ad hoc means "for a specific purpose." For example, you might say that an ad hoc committee was formed to solve a problem, meaning that the committee was formed specifically for that purpose and will not exist after the problem is solved.
Status quo means "the existing state or situation." For example, you might say that the government is trying to maintain the status quo, meaning that they are trying to keep things the way they are.
Ala carte means "from a menu of individual dishes that can be ordered separately." For example, you might say that you ordered ala carte at a restaurant, meaning that you ordered each dish individually from the menu, rather than ordering a fixed-price meal.
