A year after the release of her groundbreaking visual album Lemonade, pop legend Beyoncé and her team announced the creation of the Formation Scholars, a scholarship program that seeks to "encourage and support young women who are unafraid to think outside the box and are bold, creative, conscious, and confident." 

According to a statement released on Beyoncé's official website, "Four scholarships will be awarded...to female incoming current or graduate students pursuing studies in creative arts, music, literature or African-American studies." 

Four colleges (two of which are HBCU's) are currently participating in Queen Bey's Formation Scholars program: Howard University, Spelman College, Berklee College of Music, and Parsons School of Design.
