Is it considered unethical to apply for a internship using an ID card that was just to maintain student status

Well, I am a college dropout student who was enrolled for a under graduate course last year but later dropped out. Now, I am studying myself full time using books and online videos. I am also planning to keep self studying this year too. But, my identity card for session 2013-14 is going to expire soon. Since, we have to prove student status by providing valid identity card for perks like internship and many other things, I am planning to enrolled for a cheaper distance education program so as to get a ID card for 2014-15. Will this be considered unethical by employers when they came to know that I am enrolled just to maintain student status. Are there some problems with it? Note: I am studying full time like a normal student but the difference is just that I am self educated and not depend upon exams, classes,..
