What is the format of a college level research paper?
It depends on the professor, but I've seen many professors ask for the MLA format on research papers.
Reply:There are various term paper formats, and your teacher may have a preference. If not, the link below has a basic format you can use. You could play it safe by asking your teacher if it is acceptable in your class.





Have you checked your English textbook to see if there is a recommended form?

Turabian: http://www.uvsc.edu/owl/handouts/revised...


Chicago: http://www.libs.uga.edu/ref/chicago.html


APA: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resour...





those seem to be the most common... in the North East schools tend to use MLA, and South East they tend to use Chicago, so find out what format you need it in, and the links should help!
