In the US, Japan, and Europe at least, one cannot get an academic credential simply by taking exams.

Here's me picturing an on-line accredited BSc degree. :wideeyed: Here's me picturing myself offering to take the exam for somebody, for the right price. :woot: Here's me telling the people running the scheme that I'm keeping the money, but here's the name of the person who gave it to me. 🤪

I think the best you can hope for is study programs that may assist you in taking a degree program at a school.

There are CLEP exams for Freshman and Sophomore level courses. None are directly specific to your request. You might consider an on-line program through an accredited program, but if you are not in the US, I wouldn't know what to suggest. For anyone in the US that cannot attend school in a conventional manner, there are some pretty good reputable schools that offer courses and degrees online. One such school is Thomas Edison State University (A state school in NJ, yeah...New Joisey!). If you cannot find a way to attend classes you will have to be flexible in what you pursue.
