MEET PROFESSOR COPE
Each off-season, Brandon returns to the University of Pennsylvania to teach "Life 101" – using his unique experiences and skills to educate younger generations, and make essential financial concepts accessible, digestible and entertaining.


I keep coming back to what I learned in Life 101! I'm happy to say that in one year, I've knocked out 50% of my student loan debt. The finish line is closer than I thought!

Very grateful for this class! I feel more prepared to manage my personal finances after I graduate, and Professor Cope always spoke in a way that was inspiring and motivating.

Brandon shared a lot of personal stories, which I really enjoyed – and enlisted friends to share their experiences. Now I feel better prepared to go out into the real world!
