pretty much. same subjects, different location. it's possible to receive "college credits" for taking certain honors (high-level) classes in HS so you'll have to complete less in college. but regardless of where you attend post high-school, you have to complete those gen ed classes.
i guess it is kind of like additional years of HS. the way your country does it makes much more sense to me..
