Did you sign the lease? That will be the most important consideration. If you go to court and try to show that the lease was incomplete, you will be asked why did you agree to it by signing it.
You might be able to talk the landlord into letting you out of the lease. Don't be suprised if you lose what deposit you gave. I would bet it would cost you more money to fight the lease than what you would lose to just break it. However, work with the landlord and see what can be done.

just notify landlord that you will not be returning to school, and request return of your deposit.
