Should I apply as a Freshman or Transfer?

If you take community college courses during High School, you would apply as a Freshman not as a Transfer. UC’s give little to no “scholarships/merit aid”. Most of the FA is need-based so you would be better off applying as a Freshman if costs are not a major issue.

Each school’s website has a Net Price calculator which can give an estimate of your costs.
