Nikaido Fumi qualifies for entry into Keio University's Faculty of Policy Management

Nikaido Fumi has qualified for entry into prestigious private university Keio University's Faculty of Policy Management, as revealed on 21 Feb. Although Nikaido was supposed to have taken part in the university entrance exam in 2012 when she was in the third year of senior high school, her tight filming schedule made it difficult for her to concentrate on her studies thus she decided to wait for a year before attempting the exam. Initially, she wanted to enroll in the Faculty of Literature but later decided that the Faculty of Policy Management allowed her to learn various things and gain a wide range of experience along the way. The faculty is located in Keio's campus at Shonan Fujisawa and students will be allowed to take subjects outside of their faculty. It was reported that Nikaido had passed the admissions office's interview test after she was selected in the first round based on her school results and extra-curricular activities.

When interviewed about her success in the university entrance exam, Nikaido's agency commented that she hopes to be able to balance her work and studies and will put in her best for both areas.
