Table of Contents: How to format in APA?

Answer

APA does not require a Table of Contents, but your instructor may specifically ask you to include one in your assignment. If so, view the document below for help.

A table of contents is like a roadmap of your paper. It should contain all the headings in the body, worded exactly as they appear within. Be sure to include appendices. The left and right-hand sides should line up uniformly.

To help meet "APA style" requirements, simply use APA's formatting: 1-inch margins, one of the six accepted fonts, and standard double spacing.
