I was also recently in this position. I know how it feels to have to decide. I don't know what option to suggest to you because I don't know you. What I can say is look at what your career goals are, schedule (school vs work), work environment, co-workers, commute, and pay. So for an example, if you were interested in becoming an interior designer Option #3 would be a great choice to get work experience, and go to college to study design.

Another thing make sure you get your job offers in writing, if you haven't already.
Thank you! Yes, it's a great feeling yet it's so hard to have to decide :P

That's a good point! I don't have any of them in writing. Would it be weird to ask them to send to me in writing now? Are they going to think I don't trust them?

No I don't think its weird or lack of trust. It's the proper way to do things. If they don't comply that would be weird.

You can say something like: "Thank you again for the job offer, for my reference could you please email me the job offer letter?"

Also, if you haven't already find out how much time you have before you have to give each company a response.

If you can find transportation, my vote is for Offer 2. It's important to gain marketable skills while you're in college as competition for jobs is fierce in the real world. This sounds like the only offer that would provide that opportunity. Have you considered buying an inexpensive car, or is public transportation an option? I just don't think this is the time in your life to opt for the most convenient option. Good luck!

I wonder what the OP chose? Door #1, 2 or 3.

I would have chosen #1.
