Citation style

  • There are two styles commonly used at NSCC: APA (American Psychological Association) and MLA (Modern Language Association). 
  • APA is generally used in education programs. 
  • If your instructor does not specify which one you need to use, you can use the one that you are most familiar with. 
  • Be sure to follow any guidance from your instructor for your specific assignment.
