I think you have a decent shot. Your grades and rigor may count against you as well as lack of science/math while your art accomplishments and athletic involvement will help. It will probably if you apply ED – a lot of strong candidates apply to Conn at they like the ones who are genuinely interedted.

@bitmil17 I also think you have a decent shot. What is your intended major? Since you are strong in art, you may want to highlight that part. Would you submit an art portfolio? My S was accepted as a Fine Arts major but chose the state flagship because it offered a BFA. The arts department at Conn is very strong and the department head was very welcoming and willing to answer any questions. You may want to apply as an arts major since it may help with admissions. Has anyone from your high school been admitted? Do you have Naviance? What were the accepted students stats?
