AP title case is the headline capitalization style defined by the Associated Press Stylebook. It capitalizes principal words and all words of four or more letters, while lowercasing short articles, conjunctions, and prepositions (three letters or fewer) unless they are the first or last word.

Articles (a, an, the), coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or, for, nor), and short prepositions (at, by, in, of, on, to, up, as) of three letters or fewer stay lowercase — unless they are the first or last word of the headline.

Yes. AP style capitalizes verbs of any length, including very short ones like "is", "are", "be", and "go". This is one of the most common mistakes when capitalizing headlines by hand.

Words of four or more letters are always capitalized in AP style, including prepositions like "with", "from", "over", and "into".

AP capitalizes words of four or more letters and all verbs. Chicago traditionally lowercases all prepositions regardless of length. APA lowercases only short words (fewer than four letters) that are articles, conjunctions, or prepositions. Each style also differs in handling hyphenated compounds and words after colons.
