Master of finance

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how much extracurriculars play in the admissions process for master of finance programs. While I don’t intend to get into one of the best schools with my GPA (3.1), I would still like to take a few shots at some decent schools. I played college football for the last 4 years, double majored in finance and hr with double minors as well. I have a few small internships in financial consulting. I also have founded and served as President for 2 finance organizations on campus. I also have language skills in both Italian and French as well held an elected position in student government for 2 years. Would I have any chance of getting into Ohio state, Villanova, Arizona State, Purdue? Or are there any schools I should take a look at instead that are easier? Any advice would be appreciated
