Best choice for holistic education.
Placements: Not many students are placed as they are humanities graduates and mostly go for Masters, but a fair share of NGOs come for placements. Master’s students get placed in the education and development sectors better compared to undergraduates. Many opt for internships as well.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is excellent, with good classrooms and labs. The university library has numerous resources, both offline and online. The playground and indoor stadium are great and are full of students all the time. Hostels are also great, with pantry rooms and recreational areas.
Faculty: I would say Azim has one of the best faculties in India. They are all Ph.D. scholars who have also worked in foreign universities. The curriculum is holistic, focusing on many aspects of learning. It is different from other universities as they do not emphasize competitive exam curricula but provide a good learning experience.
Other: There are many academic and non-academic clubs. Numerous events and workshops happen on campus all the time. A yearly college fest is also organized at the end of the academic year.

I am astonished by the diversity of the student community and the enthusiasm of faculty members.
Placements: Our university has a placement cell that guides students and allows them to explore various possibilities in the work sector, especially in the social sector. More than 200 organisations recruit students from APU and around 90% of students work in the social sector.
Infrastructure: Students have five academic blocks on campus, two seminar halls, and a library. Students also have two external hostels and an internal hostel on campus. Wi-Fi is accessible on campus and laboratories are also available. Our campus shows tremendous interest to support sports and a huge ground is provided. Frisbee is one of the most popular sports on our campus. In terms of food, students have a menu that is inclusive of both south and north Indian varieties. A first aid medical room is also available to deal with medical emergencies.
Faculty: Faculty members at APU are qualified and dedicated. They are very much approachable and students can reach out to them in case of any queries. Since students follow a liberal arts system of education, certain courses are common irrespective of one's major which I find interesting. In terms of assessment, students follow continuous evaluation.
Other: The community is diverse at this university. We have students all over India and each student's knowledge is diverse and fosters the same. Students are free to organise any event on campus.

Q:   Which college is easier to get admission in for BA course among Azim Premji University and Christ University?
A: 

It is tough to compare which university is easier to get admission into for BA courses among Azim Premji University and Christ University. Both of the universities are privately owned and have similar reputations in Bangalore. However, if we compare the admission process, APU Bangalore accepts the scores of the CUET and SAT entrance examinations for admission to BA courses, and Christ University offers admission on the basis of the Christ University Entrance Test (CUET), Micro Presentation (MP), and Personal Interview (PI) rounds.

Candidates can choose any of the institutions according to their preferences. The only difference between the admission process of these universities is that APU Bangalore offers admissions through the score of the national-level entrance examination. On the other hand, Christ University BA admissions are based on candidates' scores in the university entrance examination.

Conclusively, candidates can choose any of the universities because for some of the BA specialisation Azim Premji University also conducts its in-house entrance examination.
