Chicago style is a flexible, widely used system for academic writing across the humanities and social sciences. Whether you’re using the notes and bibliography format or the author-date system, our editors ensure your work aligns with the latest edition of the Chicago Manual of Style—with precision, consistency, and attention to detail. Just let us know on the order form, and we’ll apply Chicago style to your paper.
Thank you to Jessica, my editor from Cambridge Proofreading for helping me with my manuscript. She not only improved the writing from a grammatical and academic point of view, but also helped me with my Chicago style formatting.
Amy, University of Illinois
“A job well done by the Cambridge team. My journal editor said I had numerous issues with the Chicago style formatting of my manuscript. My assigned editor did a thorough job of fixing them.”
Kat, University of Miami
“The editor (Jennifer) fixed not only my mistakes in grammar and punctuation, but also style and citation issues. She even resolved errors in substance, which would have been impossible to do without having knowledge of the subject.”
Grega, Berlin

When it comes to academic editing and proofreading, there simply is no substitute for subject-matter expertise. That’s why we have a robust team of over 300 editors who come from diverse academic backgrounds. From the sciences and engineering to the humanities and social sciences, our editors cover the full spectrum of academic disciplines.
This expansive range of expertise allows us to thoughtfully pair your document with a professional editor who not only is a proficient writer and reviewer but also understands the specific terms of art and nuances of your particular subject area.
All of our experienced academic editors hold advanced qualifications from leading global universities. Many are also members of leading industry bodies, such as the Board of Editors in the Life Sciences (BELS) and the Council of Science Editors (CSE).
Our rigorous selection process ensures that we work with only the best editors: less than 1% of the editors who apply to Cambridge are invited to join our team.
