Glynda begins her introduction speech and refers to the students as the privileged few which indicates that the academies are small.

There are probably about a dozen in each kingdom which means that if Ren and Nora were from Mistral then they might not have even gone to the same combat school as Pyrrha. I don't think her speech implies anything whatsoever in regard to the size of academies. Just because Hunter training isn't a work-a-day course of education doesn't mean the schools are at all small.

Considering we have obvious hints at least that there are schools in each kingdom and have not yet heard the names of those schools located in Vacuo or Atlas, it is a possibility that there are more schools in any one kingdom thus, yes, also a possibility that Ren and Nora attended a school separate from Sanctum.

We've only really seen Yang and Nora associate with each other once (Best Day Ever), clearly, they were not friends prior to Beacon. The possibility of Ren and Nora being aware of Pyrrha is a much different prospect than the possibility of Yang having been friends with Nora. Friends will continue to socialize and RT would have had to show implication of this. Yang ran off with her friends in the second episode, abandoning Ruby. Surely, if Nora and Ren would have been among the crowd then Ruby would have recognized them later.

Well, we still don't know Ozpin's last name (or first name if Ozpin is his last name). It could very well represent a color (I'm guessing a tone of green) If this were the case then Monty would have had no reason to specify that he doesn't follow the naming rules. Logic, people. I mean, come on, why didn't Monty say that Bartholomew doesn't follow the naming rules? Stop trying to reinvent the wheel.

As for the cereal box. That not the point. The point is if Pyrrha is loved and praised as much as the story imply she is. Fine. Then Jaune isn't from Mistral.
