In celebration of the one year anniversary of the release of Lemonade , Beyoncé celebrated in Beyoncé style by offering four lucky students $25,000 college scholarships - and the winners have been announced.
The winners were revealed on the singer's website and include Sadiya Ramos, a dance student from Boston Conservatory at Berklee, Avery Youngblood, a graphic design student at Parsons School of Design, Maya Rogers, a songwriter and vocalist at Howard University, and Bria Paige, an English major at Spelman College.
The Formation Scholarships, which were awarded as part of Beyonce's BeyGOOD initiative, outlined in advance that they would be awarded to "women pursuing creative arts, music, literature or African-American studies at four participating schools."
Prospective applicants had to complete tasks including writing an essay on "how Beyoncé's Lemonade inspired their educational goals." There's no eye rolls happening here, NOPE, not at all.
Applicants also had to maintain a 3.5 grade throughout their undergrad studies.
Congratulations to the winners!
