Helpful information on writing in the Nursing field:

APA Help

Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association Book Cover

Most University nursing students are required to use APA (American Psychological Association) style. This style requires a mix of in-text citations, rather than footnotes, and a detailed references list at the end of the work.

The Writing Center

The UL Lafayette Department of English provides writing assistance at its Writing Center located in the library on the 1st floor in Room 155, around the corner from the Reference Desk.

In-person tutoring services are offered during the Fall and Spring semesters to help students, faculty, and staff from all disciplines at any stage in the writing process. Resources for those writing in English as a second language are also available.

Visit the Writing Center for more information and hours.
