No, Azim Premji University does not accept the CUET PG scores only for admissions to MA courses. The university offers five specialisations in MA courses, from which some of the MA specialisations might accept CUET PG scores only. 
Moreover, candidates whose graduation results are awaited and who want to take admissions to MA courses can apply through the university-in-house-entrance exam (Azim Premji University National Entrance Test). Hence, APU Bangalore does accept the scores of the CUET PG and in-house entrance exam for MA courses.

The selection criteria of Azim Premji University can slightly vary depending on the applied MA course. For some of the MA programmes, the university accepts CUET PG scores. Additionally, for some of the MA courses, APU Bangalore accepts the scores of its in-house-university-level entrance examination (Azim Premji University National Entrance Test). This in-house entrance is mainly for those candidates whose graduation results are awaited and who can apply for MA courses through the previous semester's result and can appear in this examination. Further, for the selection process, candidates should appear for PI.

It is tough to compare which university is easier to get admission into for MA courses among Azim Premji University and Christ University.

Candidates can choose any of the institutions according to their preferences. The only difference between the ad

The total tuition fee for MA courses at Azim Premji University is INR 2.6 lakh. On the other hand, the total tuition fee for MA courses at Joseph University ranges from INR 1.6 Lacs to INR 2.8 lakh. Hence, it clearly can be seen that the fee structure of both universities is more or less the same. However, the fee for the MA course at St. Joseph University starts from INR 1.6 lakh. The fee structure can be only one component that candidates consider while comparing institutes, but several factors can be taken into account while choosing the best university/college, such as placement packages, seats, ranking of that particular inst

Yes, candidates can get admissions to MA courses at Azim Premji University without CUET PG scores, because the university also accepts valid scores of other entrance exam for admissions to MA courses. Hence, if candidates have not appeared and secured valid scores in CUET PG, they can appear for in-house university entrance exam (Azim Premji University National Entrance Test) to be considered for admissions. However, before applying for the entrance exam at the university, candidates must ensure that they are completing the basic eligibility criteria.
