APA

While APA won't be as commonly used as MLA here at SBA, it is a popular style that is mostly utilized by social sciences (ie. education, psychology). So you may have a teacher assign a paper that requires this style in AP psychology or a similar class. Again, Purdue Owl is a great online resource that stays up to date with all changes. See the below sample paper for specifics in formatting an APA paper.

Basic Formatting Tips:

• Requires a running header and page number
• 12 point Times New Roman font
• 1" margins
• Double-spaced
• Centered title (no underline, bold) also 12 pt. font
