What this tells a student deciding on North Macedonia
A high graduate employment rate means the labour market absorbs new graduates quickly — the single most
useful signal when you cannot see salaries. North Macedonia
sits below the European median, so plan for a longer job search.
Public spending per student is the closest thing Europe has to a teaching-quality figure. It is not a fee:
what an international student pays is set by each university and by your nationality, and no European body
publishes it centrally. That is why these pages do not quote a price — and why the US and Canadian pages on
this site do.
