MLA vs APA format for Capstone

[cypster]

I'm just wrapping up my Capstone with Dr. Andrew Tomko. My topic was related to King James I and it was MLA. As you pointed out the topic that you choose will play a major role in determining the format of your paper.

I would also strongly suggest looking up professors at Rate My Professors - Review Teachers and Professors, School Reviews, College Campus Ratings in order to determine the professor that will match your goals best. I used the feedback from there in addition to feedback on various professors in this forum to choose Dr. Tomko and I'm very glad that I did!

You may also find it helpful to do some preliminary researching for background information for your topic and to grab copies of sample papers from others who have taken the professor you select. I found that this was also very helpful in narrowing my topics and helping me to accidentally discover new ones! Hope that helps.
