What type of citation is most commonly used in college writing?

MLA
APA
Chicago
Harvard

The correct answer is: APA

Most college writing courses require students to use the American Psychological Association (APA) citation style. While other citation styles, such as Modern Language Association (MLA), Chicago, and Harvard, are also commonly used, APA is preferred in academic writing for its clear and consistent format. MLA is typically used in English and humanities courses, Chicago is commonly used in history and social science courses, and Harvard is often used in business and management courses. However, in college writing, APA is the most frequently used style due to its emphasis on citing sources accurately and consistently.
