Social Experiences with Oakhouse, or any other share houses?

Hello,
I’m looking to study in a Japanese language school starting in April and i’m looking for my best chances at making easy friends and having some sort of social life while i’m there.

I’m looking to attend ISI Japanese language school, which i’ve heard isn’t known to be very socially inclined since the classes are high paced and people usually focus on their studies. So i’ve also heard that another easy way to make connections is through share houses like Oakhouse and other chains.

Does any one have any specific experiences with Oakhouse? Or is there any other living accommodations you would reccomend for social interaction?

Thank you!
