Help! I need help figuring out the GPA I will need.?

Ok, I am an undergraduate at The University of Texas-Pan American seeking to gain acceptance into the Coordinated Program in Dietetics in hopes of becoming a Registered Dietitian (RD). I am looking at applying to the program by the spring of 2015. So far I have completed 38 credit hours with a GPA of 2.74.(It's horrible, I know, I was lost, was not goal oriented, did not know what I wanted to study and was not as determined as I am now) My goal is to obtain a 3.5 GPA by the end of the Fall 2014 Semester. In order to do that, I will be taking 14 credit hours in the Spring of 2014, 7 hours in Summer I 2014, and perhaps 15 hrs in the Fall of 2014. What kinds of grades should I shoot to get (I know most likely I would need all As, but is there a little cushion to get a B or two?) in order to get that 3.5 by the end of fall 2014? How can i calculate what I need to achieve that 3,5 GPA? Thanks!

    You will need to get all A's your upcoming semester and to further break it down, you will need at least 58 more credit hours to get your GPA up to 3.5.
