Only footnotes, long quotations, bibliography entries (double space between entries), table captions, and similar special material may be single spaced (1.0) Margins It is recommended a left margin of 1.5" and a top, bottom, and right margin of 1"

Acceptable fonts include, but are not restricted to: Times 14 for the entire writing and 12 for quotations. An indentation is the space at the beginning of a line of writing when it starts further away from the edge of the paper than all the other lines . You should indent the beginning of each page either pressing on the “Tab key in the keyboard or you can indent the entire text from the format tab in word.” You should justify your paragraph to look clean, crisp edges and more polished.
