Yeah, there is some time to spare, and Kouta is a fast learner, especially when he's determined. And yeah, I agree that Takatora would like to keep Kouta safe too, considering how focused he is on bearing the weight of what Needs To Be Done so nobody else has to and that he didn't tell Micchy anything until his hand was forced. If Ryouma says the data is too valuable to waste, Takatora would probably cave, especially if Kouta says he wants to help. It's possible also that Ryouma would consider Kouta a threat to his plans and want him distracted by university (whether or not he lives in Zawame for it). Kouta has a lot of good qualities, but he's not a therapist, and he can't help Micchy with what Micchy doesn't talk about. Kouta may try to be for Micchy what he wanted from Takatora at that age, but since they're different people it may not work. And Micchy wouldn't react well if he thought Kouta was treating him as a kid.
(I think you wrote a bit of something along those lines before, but yeah, as [presumably] Kouta's legal guardian, Takatora can force the university issue, and Kouta would probably go along with it, at least at first. Kouta could even live at home to help out.)
