Would colleges count a college Art History Class in GPA for admissions?

Not at all.

Weighted gpa is only useful when comparing applicants from the same HS. Since there was s no weighting standard, colleges will either use the UW GPA or will recalculate using their metric.

Bottom line, how a college recalculates, or if they do, or what classes they include or exclude, varies by college. And few tell you what they do.

Again, file it under “it is what it is.” You have zero control over it.
