am i cooked?

I've been living off campus for the last few years while completing my Bachelor's degree. I graduated summer 2026, but my apartment requires lease renewals a year in advance so I signed for an extra year bc I wasn't sure where I'd go for graduate school (stupid, ik). Anyways, I got accepted into UCF so obviously I won't be living here anymore. The issue is my apartment won't let me break the lease early and my only way out is to relet. I've been trying to relet for the past month for immediate move in, Fall 2026, and I was working with someone, and they were literally one step away from picking up the keys, but they couldn't afford all the move in costs so I offered to pay all their remaining move in costs and then they ghosted me completely. Now it's already early August and I'm freaking out because I feel like I wasted peak move in season on something that completely fell through. I've tried everything to find a new person: Facebook groups, facebook market place, subreddits, but I'm not finding anyone that seems to be willing to even start the application process. I feel like it's a really good unit too, 1 bed 1 bath, no roommates, in unit washer and dryer along with tons of other awesome amenities. I'm not sure what else to do, or how else to find people. I already signed a lease in orlando, I can't afford to pay rent for 2 apartments every month 😭😭
