Brown has a policy of covering health insurance costs for students who receive financial aid.
Edited to add that this is true for domestic applicants and may not be true for international students — see thumper1’s post below. (Thanks, thumper1!)

Except Brown is also need aware for international students, and has “limited financial aid” for international students. Read here:

Just want to reiterate that their website doesn’t claim to meet 100% of one’s need. They state that it’s a “goal”.
“Lehigh University provides need‐based financial assistance to a limited number of admitted non-US citizens who have applied for financial aid and who have demonstrated financial need.
It is our goal to meet 100% of the demonstrated need (not including travel and personal expenses) for as many admitted students as possible with the limited funds available. Admissions decisions for non-US citizens are, however, need-aware. This means that international citizens will be evaluated for admission with consideration of the ability of students, guardians, or sponsors to pay educational costs alongside our holistic admissions process.
Some candidates who apply for financial aid and do not demonstrate need may be admitted without a financial aid offer. Other candidates whom we would like to admit may be declined because we have exhausted our financial aid budget.”

OP: Unless you present an unusually compelling case, you need to consider alternate plans. If your maximum contribution is zero, your chances for admission are also close to that figure absent compelling circumstances or extraordinary accomplishments.
