Legal Question in Real Estate Law in North Carolina

I applied for a student housing apartment and signed the lease but later i was told that i was denied and needed a co-signer. I didn't have a co-signer so I moved in a different place but three months later I get a letter from the leasing company saying I own 1500 dollars. Can I fight this? I never moved in or payed a cent
