APA VS MLA

Similarities:

  1. Both formats are double spaced throughout
  2. Author is referred to by last name
  3. Title is centered
  4. Citations are listed in alphabetical order
  5. "References" title is centered on a separate page 


Differences:

  1. MLA has name and number at the top of each page while APA only has page number
  2. MLA citations are just the author's name, APA cites the author, page and publication date
  3. APA has a cover page while MLA does not
  4. APA pages are titled, MLA does not do the same
  5. APA provides headings for various sections of the essay, while MLA is more so continuous
