Should I start by going to the Community College of San Francisco then transfer to a university and get my bachelor's degree?

First , the name of the profession is Physician Assistant without the 's.
do you have any health care experience? that is an important part of the application.
you will need at least 2 yrs of prereqs for most programs. you can take these at a community college.
PA programs grant certificates, associates degrees, bs degrees, or ms degrees depending on the individual program, their goals, and their desired applicant pool. all pa's regardless of degree take the same national exam.
start here for info on pa's:
