They also told us that either that was the only way, or that I had to live in HK for 7 years? Anyways, can I just go in and apply for HK citizenship and NOT pay international student fees?

I am in a similar situation as you are however I am already at the interview stage (which means I qualify for HKID). I am going back in December for final interview n that should determine if I get it or not. If you are born in Canada BEFORE 1997 then you qualify for HKID because HK was part of the British colony.
hope that helps....
