As you prepare your assignments/papers, there are some general formatting rules for the APA format that you MUST be familiar with to be successful in your writing.

Basic Rules for the APA format are:

• 8 ½ x 11 paper size
• Double-spaced
• 1 inch margin on all sides
• 12 pt. Times New Roman font
• Page numbers (beginning with title page)
• Page header
• Difference between Bible and biblical
• Worldview being one word
• Proper in-text citation examples
• Proper reference examples

Belhaven APA Resources and Academic Help are available through Canvas and Blazenet. You can see in the image below how to access the Belhaven APA Quickguide which is the official authority on APA for your submissions at Belhaven. I highly recommend you print this out and keep a copy close by when you are writing your papers.    Here is a LINK to the QUICK GUIDE
