In addition, he was also the class valedictorian at Waverly High School. Cohen started his religious journey young too, notably skipping one of his high school football games for the Jewish holiday Yom Kippur. Cohen graduated summa cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School in 2001, and graduated with both an M.B.A. and a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business in 2005.
