Life is not Switzerland 

fig. of speech: „Life isn’t easy“
Switzerland is a wealthy country with a low crime rate and a low unemployment rate.
One could only assume that people who live there don’t have to face any problems of the real world.

„I didn’t get into the university of my dreams“

You can’t always get what you want - if you could, you‘d be in Switzerland.
