What is the proper page format for a writing sample that is a portion of a larger work?

Hello all,

I'm humming and hawing over how to format an academic writing sample for a fellowship. The sample is a portion of my B.A. thesis, which I didn't organize by chapter, rather by headings. I have a cover sheet, which has my abstract on it, and I want to single space. Is that acceptable? And should I put the title of my paper on the first page or in the header? I put it on the first page, but it looks strange having it above a random middle section...

On the very first page put the title not in header but in middle part than on next page keep the abstract.
