Another update...
I found out today that I have successfully been transferred into the Faculty of Social Science (the faculty that Geography is in), and I am now acceptable to continue with ROTP as long as I bring proof of my enrollment into the Social Sciences to the RC. The good news is that after this upcoming year I will be able to get into the Double Major program with Kin because I will have the necessary credits in both programs. The bad news is, three more years of school. But to end on a good note...at least it's not four more years
.
Cheers

This may be a little late information and only half applies to your question.
When I looked into Kin for the UTPNCM programme they had advised me that the possible reason why Kin was no longer suitable is because the Universities were changing the programs from 4 to a 5 year, which is longer than the maximum time given for UTPNCM (4 years).
I am just hazarding a guess, but maybe that applies to ROTP as well.

Hmmm I haven't heard of UWO's Kin programme changing length any time soon. I would have heard from Kin council if that was the case, but possibly other provinces' Universities may be doing that? After all I can't speak for ALL Universities, just UWO, so that reason may be correct.
However it is strange how all the info about this issue has been kept in the dark. My CFRC has no answers for me they just told me, "you have to change your degree", and I asked why, to many people I might add, and they all said "all that we know, is that the military doesn't recognize Kinesiology as an acceptable degree." I'm not complaining though; I still am going to end up with a degree (whatever it turns out to be) and a career in the military. It would be nice to have a specific reason why I can't study Kin, but I'm not going to hold my breath on it. There is no reason to because I still have this great opportunity. Besides, a Geography degree is probably better suited for an ACSO candidate anyways.
