Sophia does offer classes in English but you would rarely get a chance to interact with local students. Students who major in this course are either Japanese who lived overseas, international student, or those from international high schools in Japan.

I have attended only first semester because it was boring and I decided to just study abroad. But that's because I'm Japanese.

Personally, I'm biased and believe that ICU is a better school and the surrounding location is amazing. I'm a local from Mitaka and I can say that it is quiet enough but offers great access to Shinjuku and other major stations.

There are many long term residents from overseas and Mitaka being a residential area, it attracts foreigners who want to settle in Tokyo.

Anyways, I can give you some more info if you are interested but I highly recommend you to visit both campuses. After all they are very different.
