A set is a collection of things, called elements. These elements may be concrete or abstract (or a mixture) such that, in principle, at least, given any element it is possible to say whether or not it is in the set.

One reason for the "in principle" bit is the set of prime integers. People know what that means: there are clear, simple rules defining prime numbers. But given some huge number it may not be possible to determine if it is a prime.

What is the definition of set in college algebra?

All of mathematics can be defined in terms of sets. Sets are used to give an axiomatic definition of numbers and relations.

You have to learn what your teachers expects you to learn, but very little set theory is actually needed for college algebra.
