By default, Microsoft Word will format footnotes at the end of the page with a superscript number and no indent.
For the Chicago Notes and Bibliography style, you will need to manually change the font size of footnote number and indent it.
See our instructions on how to create a Note (footnote) in Word and manually edit the format according to the Chicago Notes and Bibliography style.
Please check with your Unit Coordinator to see if their preference is to use the formal Chicago style footnote formatting or the default Word format.
