Help Would this be illegal?

The main reason I wanted to ctb is bc I felt like a useless failure. I think that it stems from me being 22 in uni and lying to my parents and family that I've advanced in my major. But I'm not actually taking the courses for my major bc I passed/not passed a class for my major.

I'm interested in just taking the classes over again online. Would it be to use someone else's address to take the classes? It's a community college in Arizona that offered classes online and their tuition is cheaper for in state residents. Who would be willing to let me use their address for cheaper tuition…?

Yeah, that's called address fraud; it's illegal in the US and punishable by years in prison. I'd strongly encourage you to be honest with your parents about what is going on. Not saying anything will only create a bigger problem.

Tell the truth. You'll feel better and once it's out there, then hopefully everybody will want to help you get back on track and finish. And if the fam doesn't want to help, the university will have resources.

Is it just one class? Surely you don't want to ctb over one class? Is it the money? All you can do is tell the truth and figure out how to get back on track. I hope you'll be surprised to see how much others want to help you. It's happened to me time and time again, when I'm ready to quit.

Isn't there a residency time that after living in the state for a while you're an in-state student? Probably wouldn't be a dependent on their taxes then.
