Writing and Formatting

Follow the department's formatting rules

  • For example, does your capstone require page numbers or a table of contents?
  • Use Citation Manager Tools to automatically create your bibliography, endnotes, or footnotes.

Get writing support

  • Student Writing Support can help with outlines, writing good transitions, and organizing a big paper. Use future appointments as deadlines to keep on track.
  • Writing help is also available from the Academic Success Centers.

Gain software skills

  • For example, take a lesson on Word, Google Drive, or learn how to make a graph with Technology Training.

Keep at it

  • Set small goals each week.
  • Check-in with a buddy to keep you on task.
