Most of my profs prefer not to have a cover page as it's a waste of paper, if your prof didn't ask for one then I wouldn't do it.
If he/she did ask for one then you would have the title of your paper in the center of the page. In the lower right hand corner you would put the following: name, student number, prof name, course name, date, if you have a TA their name and section.
If he/she didn't ask for one then on the first page of your actual essay you include all that information. It looks like this:
Name
Student Number
Prof Name
Course
TA name and Section
This is the title of my Philosophy paper
Philosophy is cool! Yay! blahblahnblahblahdhyu fgabudhuiawhndla etc, etc.
