| Algebra is the study of real numbers. Arithmetic deals directly with these numbers, but Algebra tells us how to represent them symbolically and then to manipulate the symbols by specific rules to solve problems that could not be approached simply by looking at the numbers directly. |

College Algebra is similar in content to high school Algebra II building upon a foundation course in algebra. However, because of the difference in schedule and format of a college course there is much more expected from the student than was found in a high school course.
It is possible to successfully complete College Algebra with only a high school background in Algebra I and Geometry; however, having completed an Algebra II course will aid considerably. This is the reason that normally high school Algebra II is a strongly recommended prerequisite.
