I have a few questions about prior-enlisted navy sailors. Does anyone know if USNA prefers prior-enlisted members to have a certain job, such as nukes? Or does USNA just want to see solid job performance, regardless of the job? Also, does it make a difference if you're prior enlisted Navy or USMC? Also, how can a sailor take an ACT/SAT, or college classes while active duty?
 
Prior enlisted Navy or Marine Corps makes no difference. Heck, you could be prior enlisted anything.
USNA doesn't care what job you did - as long as you did it well - and have a Commanding Officer Recommendation.

Taking the ACT and SAT while on active duty is fairly straightforward, and you don't have to pay for them.
Here is a link to Military.com, as it relates to AD personnel taking standardized tests. Just go there and follow the links.

Good luck.
 
I really wouldn't expect that there is any official policy on whether a particular enlisted rating is preferred. What counts is that the applicant has exemplary performance in whatever he/she does. That being said, a more technical rating and proven performance in service schools certainly can't hurt. (I seem to recall several Nukes when I went to NAPS.... and even one classmate, an ET3 that didn't make it through Nuke school, but got admitted and did fine at USNA).
