APA Title Page Generator
Easily generate APA title pages for your papers using our free online tool.
What Is the APA Title Page Generator?
The APA Title Page Generator is a free tool that builds a correctly formatted APA 7th edition student title page in seconds. APA 7 introduced a separate student format - different from the professional version - and universities are strict about its elements: title in bold title case, your name, institutional affiliation, course number and name, instructor, and due date, all centered and double-spaced. Enter your details and the tool assembles them in the correct order and format, ending the most commonly penalized formatting task in student papers.
How to Use the APA Title Page Generator
- Enter your paper title, name, institution, course, instructor and due date.
- Click generate to receive your formatted APA 7 student title page.
- Copy it into your document as page 1, centered and double-spaced.
- Set your page number in the top-right header - student papers need no running head.
APA 7 Student Title Page: Element by Element
Top to bottom: the title (bold, title case, positioned in the upper half of the page, three or four double-spaced lines down), one blank double-spaced line, your name (first, middle initial, last - no titles or degrees), your institutional affiliation (department, university), the course number and name (PSY 201: Introduction to Psychology), your instructor's name (with their preferred title), and the due date (Month Day, Year). Everything is centered and double-spaced in the same 12-point font as your paper. Student papers require only a page number in the header - the professional running head is not needed unless your instructor asks.
