1. I never really thought about the deadline for admissions but now that you bring it up, I think that it did take place during the fall or late summer. Early admission is usually in October/November. I don't really think that they thought much about this.
2. You're not mistaken at all. Valencia is not at all close to the beach. I'm from LA and I posed the same question the minute after I finished the movie. Even if you're from downtown LA or around the area, you're nowhere near an ocean. You're always at least 30-45 minutes away. You can look at my past thread here (http://community.livejournal.com/shelter_diner/25250.html) to get some opinions of the location. But I think that the general consensus is that maybe they live around CalArts but they really gotta drive to see that beach.
I've also never seen a beach like THAT in San Pedro with the beautiful rocks and everything. I went to school over there. It looks more like it's up, up, up the coastline.
