It takes place in the year:
We know this because Nan (the former Mrs. Robinson) asks Benjamin Braddock, "were you aware of the big Westinghouse scandal out there last year?" and then soon after says, "Well, in a nutshell, Ben, two days before the bottom fell out of Westinghouse, the man told me to sell all my shares" and the day Westinghouse Electric Corporation company stock first crashed in the real world was December 21st, 1973 AD.
1974 AD

12.1973 + 1 = 12.1974.
More specifically, Nan discusses taking her grandchildren to the theater: "Matt and Jason have been talking about seeing The Towering Inferno" and soon after "I think it just opened last week." and the film "The Towering Inferno" (1974) first released in theaters December 16th, 1974 AD. So it must be December of 1974 AD.
