Is the word requirement of an essay just for the essay content?

Quick question, I have am in my first year and am currently doing a 2000 word essay. Does the referencing, bibliography, title etc make up that 2000 amount? Or do they just mean the content? Cheers

Referencing and the Bibliography definitely shouldn't count, but I would imagine that the title would. Image captions and annotations also don't count though.

Absolutely no idea, I'm just saying that if you include images, captions and annotations generally don't count.
