Penn State Main is definitely harder to get accepted to than Pitt. When considering those numbers, think about the number of applications PSU gets vs the number Pitt gets. Both are popular, but Penn State receives far more interest (98,000 applicants last year). Also, are those numbers for Penn State as a whole or just University Park? Either way, I have done many regional studies on the selectivity of state affiliated schools in PA, and students rejected by Pitt and accepted to PSU-Main are few and far between.
