I know a lot about Wellesley (which has a very good Art History department, by the way) and I’d say that you look like a good candidate for admission there. Your SAT’s may not be stellar, but high achievement in other areas can often offset low scores, and you’re a high achiever.
By the way, when I was applying to Yale, one of my classmates had terrible SAT scores — far lower than mine — but she’d been a top student. We were both admitted.
