How likely is it for me to get a scholarship from LSE for MSc Finance program?

I'm a management student at a target-university in Italy; frankly, I'm not happy with the work and social culture here, so planning to do a master's in London after my graduation (2024). Though, I definitely will have problems about funding my master's thanks to my ego that made me think I could become a millionaire by investing most of my money into ETH while my parents were in debt.

I'm not going to ask if I'm going to get accepted to LSE because most likely I will be accepted. But, I'm really wondering how much scholarship I can get with a student profile like this; (If I don't get any scholarships, I will get a loan that will be a pain in my ass for a couple of years)

- 3.90+ GPA
- Think Tank Internship (Junior year) + F100 Finance Internship (Sophomore year)
- Working with a major NGO on climate change projects.
- Volunteering for a foundation.
- Started an student investment fund at my university [(€25.000+ AUM), because euro fell below parity with the dollar, we were ducked for a bit, but currently recovering and hoping to make profits until the next year]
- Networking with a McKinsey Associate and BB IB Analyst for more than 3-4 months and will probably get an internship at one of those places this summer.
- Took a couple of GMAT mock tests and scored around 590-610 without studying. I will start studying for it in a couple of months and will take the exam before the summer. Most likely will score close to/over 750.
- My hobbies include; history, philosophical anthropology, evolutionary psychology, sociology, community service and gastronomy.

Do you think I can get a scholarship that will cover at least half of the tuiton?
