Using APA Style

Capella uses the APA manual as its style guide for scholarly writing. Using a single publication manual ensures a consistent style across degrees, programs, and schools. A number of specific styles are generally associated with specific disciplines. For example, learners in the arts and humanities typically use MLA style for documenting sources, while ACS style, developed by the American Chemical Society, is the standard for writing documents related to chemistry.

Capella University requires learners to use APA style, which is well-respected and widely used in scholarly works and academic publications. APA style guidelines will help you write papers that clearly communicate your ideas.

Following APA style guidelines means that your papers have a consistent look and organization, which allows the reader to focus on the ideas presented in the paper. Capella provides online resources designed to help you understand APA style and use it effectively.
