You don't need p or pp to proceed the page number or any punctuation following the number. Create a running head of your last name and the page number in the top right corner (e.g., Bealey 4).

All pages, except the title page if you have one, should include a page number and your last name.

Don't capitalize the following parts of speech when they fall in the middle of a title: articles, prepositions, coordinating conjunctions, "to" in an infinitive, such as to go, to sleep, to believe.

Capitalize the first word, the last word, a word following a colon, and all principal words: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, subordinating conjunctions.

The rules for capitalization of titles are as follows:.

Don't underline, italicize, or bold the title, and it is not necessary to put it in quotation marks or in block capitals.

The title page includes the same information as the title block, with the title centered on the page and the remaining information (your name, instructor's name, course code, due date) in upper left corner.

Include a title page if your professor requests/requires one.

Double-space and then put your title, centered.

On the first page of your paper, at the top left margin, list the following: your name on the first line, your instructor's name on the next line, the course name and number on the third line, and finally, the due date.

Note: If your instructor has his or her own requirements, follow them.
