Hi Gmatcake, your UG score is a bit below average but since you have good GMAT can balance your acad scores. EC arc looks great, well-represented leadership and team handling skills will surely pump your chances for sure. Since you already in the credit management dept. it is easy for convince adcom for the scholarship.
Apart from your profile, you need to work hard on your application essays and share your post-MBA goals, skills, your roles and responsibilities at your workplace and your recommendations which will help you impress the admission committee.
All the best!!

A bit late but here are a few thoughts on your profile Gmatcake:
Hope this helps some.
Cheers,
- The academic pedigree is decent however the % is below average (?). The GMAT score will definitely help on that front to a certain extent. For reasons mentioned here, we don't speculate on school selection chances. However, in general, it's not prudent to target only one school though - so do spread your risks.
- Your professional experience sounds decent. While the scale is big at PSU banks, it usually gets tough to show career acceleration and differentiation. Make sure you focus on those elements well, to ensure adcoms are convinced of the professionalism and the value you bring to the table. Also, develop a bit more specificity - Finance is pretty broad and Consulting can appear a bit too generic as a post-MBA pitch.
- The age/experience ratio looks a bit amiss - do you have any gaps in the profile? If yes, do address them well.
- The ECs arc looks ok. School level stuff won't help much/at all though. Of the lot, the election bit sounds most useful - use that well.
Hope this helps some.
Cheers,
