I want to go to language school fulltime in the near future (those fulltime courses you will also not have an issue getting a student visa on the future with).
For me price and quality is a deciding factor, location not that much.
The school doesn’t matter much as they teach about the same (boring and somewhat useless) content. You will have keen much more by actively using your Japanese at a part-time job, television, magazines, and using Japanese outside the classroom. So find one which has the most opportunities outside of the classroom, has decent dorms, and then choose by what their graduates have done after completing the course.
Naganuma school seems pretty good and serious. Most people I know who went there got pretty decent level. But note that it’s a serious place so if you miss/are late to a few too many classes you’ll be kicked out.
