What's the hardest university to get into according to CBS News?

Hello, I was reading a CBS News report on college admissions but couldn't find the specific university they mentioned as the hardest to get into. Does anyone happen to know?

a year ago

According to CBS News, Harvard University often holds the title of the most selective university in the United States. Please note, however, that the "hardest" university to get into can vary yearly due to fluctuations in application numbers, pool of applicants, and the school's capacity. "Hardest" is also subjective depending on a student's profile and fit with the school. Remember, it's always best to select schools that fit your academic profile as well as your personal and career interests.
