We do know that:

The show has covered an entire Beacon school year.

The school year started in either summer or spring.

17 seems to be the regular entrance age.

The show is currently set in late fall or winter.

Regardless of how many days are in their year, four seasons is one year.

We haven't seen any indication of a change in age for the members of RWBY and JNPR (or anyone else) throughout the show.

Being generous, we can interpert that at least the birthdays of team RWBY are in a late fall to late summer range.

If we are as restrictive as possible, we can estimate that team RWBY's birthdays and team JNR's birthdays are in an early winter to early spring range.
