Because APA is the standard writing manual in communication professions and scholarship, please adhere to 7th edition APA style in your written assignments. Consider purchasing a copy of the APA manual or using a reputable source, such as those linked within this library guide, to format your papers. You can also seek free assistance from the Writing Center, located on the first floor of the campus library and by virtual appointments.
All written assignments must be typed and double-spaced, using 12-point Times New Roman font and 1” margins on all sides. Staple all printed papers in the upper left corner. Include a title page, running head, and full reference page. Consult the resources in this library guide for details on formatting your paper to APA standards. Evaluation of your work includes content and form; therefore, always proofread for style, grammar, punctuation, spelling, and format.
