How do a cite a thesis APA 6th edition?

Answer

I am going to make an assumption that you are citing a thesis from a former CSS student that you retrieved from our Dissertations & Theses @ The College of St. Scholastica database.

The APA Style Guide to Electronic References, 6th edition, offers a few different options for dissertations & theses. I think a slight modification of this example, from p. 23, makes the most sense ...

39. Doctoral dissertation, from an institutional database

Adams, R. J. (1973). Building a foundation for evaluation of instruction in higher
education and continuing education (Doctoral dissertation). Retrieved from
http://www.ohiolink.edu/etd/

Our citation would look something like this ...

White, T. (2104). Use of Australian Shepherds in a small college management department: Herding faculty gets results

     (Master's thesis, The College of St. Scholastica). Retrieved from http://www2.css.edu/app/library/
