Using Mesh Bodies in Assemblies

Hello, I have just started using Onshape and was wondering if I could use a mesh body in an assembly. I have one waiting in a part studio, but I can't insert it into an assembly or do really anything with it. I am an education user and cannot purchase Pro. I don't know if mesh in assemblies is a Pro feature or not, but I would like to know a way to, Pro or not. Can somebody help me?

STEP files in this that are converted from an STL file can be quite large so keeping the face count down to around 50th is a good idea.
Meshlab is good for decimation and Meshmixer is good for repairing STLs and OBJs.
Both are free to use as is FreeCad.
