There are many reasons academic instituions like Post University require the use of a style guide such as the one provided by the American Psychological Association (APA). One main reason is to ensure that students have basic formatting rules in place to help them get started when writing a paper. However, another important reason for APA is to ensure students are giving credit to other authors and organizations if they borrow their work. Not providing this recognition and trying to pass off another's credit as one's own is considered academic dishonesty.
