Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Connecticut
Me and my roomate recently gave a deposit for an apartment. We never signed the lease, a rental application, or any kind of papers when we made the deposit. We now cannot take the apartment. We were given a receipt after we gave the deposit that said the deposit was not refundable. We were not told that it was non-refundable before we gave the deposit or after we gave it. Is it possible for us to get out deposit back?

You could file an action in small claims court or possibly housing court for the return of the deposit.
