MLA Formatting Tips
- One-inch margins on all sides of paper.
- Use an easily readable type face and set it between 11- 13 unless specified by professor.
- Place the page number in the upper right corner of the header. Include last name followed by the page number.
- Double-spaced
- MLA generally does not ask for a title page, instead include the following at the top of the first page of text, justified to the left. Each of the following will be on a separate line.
- Your name
- Instructor's name
- Course name and number
- Date
- Then, double space and place your title in the center.
