Do Americans not cover calculus at all in high school? Pic related is A-level maths, studied by English 16-18 year olds in Sixth Form or "College" (not the same thing as the American definition of college). Generally a student will start university at 18 or 19, not too long after their A-level results.

It would be strange to have an introductory calculus class at university level, except maybe a brief refresher or something. There are exceptions (access courses for mature students etc) but it seems like US high school is a lot more basic than in most countries.
