APA 7 Title Page in Word, Done Automatically
Type the title, your name, school, course, instructor and date at the top of your paper. Upload it, and it comes back as a correct APA 7 title page with the text starting on page 2.
The APA 7 student title page has exact rules: the title in bold, three or four lines from the top, centred; one blank double-spaced line; then your name, your school and department, the course number and name, the instructor’s name and the due date, each on its own centred line; a page number in the top-right corner; no running head; and the text beginning on a fresh page with the title repeated in bold. Getting the page break and the spacing right by hand in Word is where most people lose the mark. Veermat reads those lines from the document you upload, builds the title page, and moves the text to page 2. It also checks the rest of the paper — headings, spacing, references — and reports on it.

In short
An APA 7 student title page has the title in bold and centred in the upper third of the page, a blank line, then the author, affiliation, course, instructor and due date on separate centred lines, a page number top right, and the text starting on page 2 with the title repeated. Upload your Word paper with those lines at the top and Veermat builds the title page, adds the page break and the page numbers, and reports what else needs attention.
What goes on an APA 7 title page?
For a student paper: the paper title (bold, centred, title case), then after one blank line the author’s name, the department and university, the course number and name, the instructor’s name and the assignment due date, each centred on its own line, double-spaced. A page number sits top right. No running head. The body starts on page 2 with the title repeated in bold. Veermat builds this from the lines at the top of your document.
The page break most people miss
Your title page gets its own page — automatically
Most submitted papers have the title block and the first paragraph on the same page, which is the first thing an APA rubric deducts for. Veermat detects the block of centred lines at the top, positions it correctly, inserts the page break, repeats the title on page 2 and numbers every page. If the block is missing lines, the report says exactly which.
- Title bold and centred, three lines from the top, blank line before the author
- Text moved to page 2 with the title repeated in bold
- Page number added top right on every page, no running head
- Existing headers are never overwritten

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a running head?+
Not for a student paper in APA 7. Only professional manuscripts use one. A page number top right is required and is added.
What if my title page lines are left-aligned?+
Centre them in Word first (select the lines, Ctrl/Cmd+E) so they are recognised as the title block; the tool looks for a block of centred lines at the top.
Can it build a title page for MLA?+
MLA has no title page — a four-line heading block at the top left and a centred title. Use the MLA essay formatter for that.
