As compared to?

If you are comparing with Sunway or Heriot-Watt, then the answer is a resounding NO! Then is based on my understanding on the emphasis and teaching staff of that university. unless things has drastically changed over the past few months.

UTAR is also quite good in Actuarial Science.

But I already had a certificate in Foundation in Management so it might be difficult for me to apply in UTAR. I had look through Sunway also but their MUET requirement must be at least Band 4 and I got Band 3. How about UCSI? Any more suggestions?

Wait - what? Why would it be difficult to apply to UTAR with that foundation? Generally, they will accept most foundation programmes with a 2.0 CGPA unless stated explicitly.

In regards to MUET - my advice is to just try to apply first and see what the counsellors say. They may even waive that requirements if it is a Sunway entry Req. and not an official Approval Letter Req.

try these two options first and once you know that it is not a viable option, then seek for the alternatives. Between UCSI and APU - I would think APU is a better option.

Does anyone here know which are the intake dates for masters degree program in APU other than September? Their website only says the next intake is September 2016 and that's it.

Probably marketing gimmick. Better you apply it by yourself if your result is good.

Walking distance - in campus accomodation.
890 (single) to 900 (twin sharing) excluding utilities.

Nearby to apu campus
Parkhill/ PPA1M bukit jalil - you can take the free lrt shuttle bus

Student shuttle bus is free if you staying in apu accomodation or you need to pay 30/month if not.
Arena Green
Vista Komenwel
Endah Promenade/Regal
South city/ One South

Food is limited if you are staying in campus/ park hill/vista/arena green.

Endah and Southcity have a supermarket nearby, so finding food is easier.

When you're joining this university, go for the South City/Fortune Park accommodation instead of the on-campus accommodation. Stay there for 4 months, because your contract is enforced by then. Once you make friends and/or get used to the lifestyle, move out ASAP with friends or to another place.
