You'll be lucky to even find a physical geology or meteorology degree that's offered online. I don't know about Europe, but the physical sciences are not common as online programs in the U.S.. Even if those degrees were offered online, you would not be able to completely test out of them. You would only be able to test out of the general education requirements.
Charter Oak offers a degree in geology, but you cannot test out of the concentration (major) and not all of the courses are offered at COSC. You would have to take them online (if you can even find them online) somewhere else and transfer them in. There are some geology/meteorology courses offered online by Mississippi State University and Penn State World Campus. The closest thing to testing out of a physical science degree would be to major in chemistry or physics at COSC and take the Chemistry or Physics GRE for college credit. TESC offers a degree in environmental science, but you can't test out of that either. Aside from Charter Oak, Excelsior, and Thomas Edison; just about every school in the U.S. will require that you take at least 30 credits in courses with them.
I just want to clarify. Do you mean geology or physical geography?
