In the song "Formation," Beyoncé sings about women working together to move forward. And now she wants to keep that spirit alive by helping women go to college.

In honor of the one-year anniversary of her album "Lemonade," Queen Bey created the Formation Scholars program.

In a statement on her website, Beyoncé says the Formation Scholars will "encourage and support young women who are unafraid to think outside the box and are bold, creative, conscious and confident."

The superstar is partnering with four schools: Berklee College of Music in Boston, Parsons School of Design in New York City, Howard University in Washington, D.C., and Spelman College in Atlanta.
