There is a wide range of Erasmus+ opportunities in North Macedonia. Students can go to Erasmus+ projects as early as they turn 16 years. High schools have collaboration with different high schools around Europe where they send students оn Youth Exchanges that usually last around one week. In that period of time, they visit and see how other high-schools function and what kind of programs they have for their students.
University students can look for Erasmus+ offices in their university where they can find information on which Universities they have a collaboration with and apply to study one semester or one year in the neighboring countries.

Rather than that there are a lot of NGOs who work with Erasmus+ projects. They send participants on youth training courses, youth exchanges or long-term volunteering projects.
Most of the organizations publish their calls for participants on Facebook pages dedicated to Erasmus plus mobilities. The following links are from those pages.
The application process is usually easy all it requires is to fill out the form that the organizations request. It may vary depending on the organization.
