Keio traces its history to 1858 when Fukuzawa Yukichi, who had studied the Western educational system at Brown University in the United States, started to teach Dutch while he was a guest of the Okudaira family. In 1868 he changed the name of the school to Keio Gijuku and devoted his time to education. While Keio's initial identity was that of a private school of Western studies, it expanded and established its first university faculty in 1890.

Keio has approximately 30 Research Centres located on its five main campuses and at other facilities for advanced research in Japan. Keio University Research Institute at SFC (KRIS) has joined the MIT and the French INRIA in hosting the international W3C.{{cite web |url=http://www.w3.org/Press/Keio-PR.html |title=Keio University joins MIT and INRIA in hosting W3C |last1=Abramatic |first1=Jean-Francois |last2=Vezza |first2=Albert |date=September 9, 1996 |access-date=January 20, 2021}}

As of June 2022, Keio University holds the largest endowment fund among all Japanese universities, with ¥78 billion. This is followed by Waseda University at ¥29 billion, Kyoto University at ¥20 billion and the University of Tokyo at ¥15 billion.{{Cite web |last=Otake |first=Tomoko |date=2022-06-22 |title=Will a ¥10 trillion fund be the savior of Japan's universities? |url=https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2022/06/22/national/endowment-fund-research-academic-culture/ |access-date=2024-05-14 |website=The Japan Times |language=en}}

Traditionally, there has been a strong rivalry between Keio and Waseda University. There are annually many matches between the two universities in several sports, such as baseball, rowing, rugby, lacrosse, track and field, American football, association football, aikido, karate, basketball, tennis, swimming, fencing, figure skating, ice hockey, and field hockey. These games are called "Kei–So Sen (慶早戦)" or, more generally, "So–Kei Sen (早慶戦)".

The Kei-So baseball rivalry, which has existed for over a century, holds a notable place in the history of Japanese baseball. A game played on October 16, 1943, is particularly well known and was later depicted in the 2008 film The Last Game – the Final So-Kei Sen.
