Houlihan Lokey RX- NY vs LA

I'm a current sophomore at an East Coast Semi Target. Networking with people from both offices right now, but trying to narrow down my focus as recruiting picks up. 

1) Can I apply to both offices and let analysts know I'm doing so?

2) Which office is better in terms of east coast buy-side exit opps? Obviously HL RX exits are pretty strong, but is it the same from LA? Want to end up on the east coast again (family, friends, etc), but would not mind doing a summer/2 years in LA.

Any help would be appreciaed. Thanks in advance.
