Renting

I signed a lease last year that was up on July 31 but we have to move July 15. They gave me an extention untill the 31 but 2 days ago they called and said i had to be out by the 15th, My new lease starts the 1st of august and its already been signed, do i stay in the apt because i already paid for the whole month of july and they are not giving me pro rated rent, what should i do, because i have nowhere to go and i have to work i'm a student at college and my family is in new york, i would miss 10 days of work and half a months rent, what should i do?
