Prof @Cardwell_PJ is unnecessarily pessimistic here.
1. The fact that N Ireland students are joining ERASMUS shows that the program is flexibly enough run to take on non EU members - or even non-states.
This no real legal impediment to Scotland joining.

2. Immigration will surely be trickier. But is UK govt really going to sabotage this? Will they also make reciprocal EU students going to N Ire unbearably difficult?
No.
As for numbers - English is the most demanded language - so Scotland will have no problem attracting students.

3. Costs - a problem. But not insurmountable it’s a matter of will & priority.
EU as @guyverhofstadt has shown has many interested in supporting UK students in ERASMUS.
In any case ERASMUS is not significantly expensive due to principle of reciprocity & low transport costs.

4.
In short I think Scotland could participate in ERASMUS but it requires political will from Scotland and flexibility/generosity from EU.
Worth a try surely @Cardwell_PJ
