No, not Harry Potter at all. The series (based on a series of books) called The Magicians, features an academy of magic called Brakebills, and the formal students of magic are pitted against self-taught (considered "feral") magicians in the show. Brakebills isn't as formal and warded as Hogwarts, nor as venerated. Things go wrong, badly, and fast, at Brakebills.

Oh! The Magicians is on my "to watch" list!

Definitely watch The Magicians it's excellent. Sera Gamble is the co-Executive Producer and she's really showing how good she can be.

Pitted - how? Match to the death?

Competition. First season Brakebills students and self-taught were all trying to reach a parallel world. There was cooperation, and sabotage, and competition. I haven't seen season two yet, I don't know if or how that worked out. Rick Worthy, SPN's Alpha Vamp, is the headmaster of Brakebills.
