I have had no previous experience with physics, but I know it's what I want to do and I believe that I am capable of learning an applied science. I also have never taken a calculus course in high school. I came here for some recommendations on primer books that I could read to be better prepared for university in the spring. Thank you.

No, I would say go over the mathematics you learned at school. You'll re-learn all the physics at university, so don't bother with going over your physics. If you really want to get a start, try read a calculus book, you can get it from the library or what not. Something like Stewart would be good. Especially the bits on vectors.
