Good evening,

I am a first year nursing student and just started last week at OCC (yeaaaa!) and I am looking for any FREE APA format templates. I found PERRLA but they charge $24.95.. I would pay that if anyone can vouch for them.

Thank you in advance :)

We just talked about this in class today! Here's a free APA template. I don't know how good it is (I haven't looked at it) but my professor gave us a link here on our class website, so I assume she approves of it.

I've heard other people vouche for PERRLA, but I can only vouche for Reference Point. It's a Godsend and worth every penny.

Anyone need an actual free one should go to

I used it all the way through nursing school, and each time I used a source again I just copy and pasted it.

I also made a 'references' page (as I got smarter) and had a running reference page that I simply highlighted (in word program) the references I used in the paper.

I hope this saves some time for some of you. It saved alot of time for me. If you need any nursing school help, feel free to contact me, I have lots of directions to point you :)
