Should I use APA 6 or APA 7?

Starting in the summer 2020 term, Walden University uses APA 7 as the official style guide. All students in coursework and working on doctoral capstone studies (dissertations, doctoral studies, project studies, etc.) should use APA 7.

Visit the Writing Center's APA 7 Transition page for more resources on learning APA 7.

And explore the Writing Center's APA webpages for instruction on citations, references, and other APA style guidelines.
