No, there's nothing in canon (that I'm aware of, anyway) that
suggests Keiichi has only been at Nekomi 4 years. The only issue is
that most Japanese universities have 4 year programs. I haven't been
able to find a reference to an undergraduate 5 year program. Still,
he may have just taken a light course load, understandable when you
consider what else is going on in his life. There's certainly no
indication that he's ever been in danger of failing a class, much
less actually failed one.
