Independent Auditors' Report on Internal Accounting Control


To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
Wells Fargo Funds Trust:

In planning and performing our audit of the financial  statements of the Arizona
Tax-Free Fund,  California Limited Term Tax-Free Fund, California Tax-Free Fund,
Colorado Tax-Free Fund, Minnesota Intermediate Tax-Free Fund, Minnesota Tax-Free
Fund,  National Limited Term Tax-Free Fund,  National  Tax-Free Fund, and Oregon
Tax-Free  Fund (nine funds of Wells  Fargo Funds  Trust) for the year ended June
30, 2000, we considered its internal control,  including control  activities for
safeguarding  securities,  in order to determine our auditing procedures for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with
the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal control.

The management of Wells Fargo Funds Trust is responsible  for  establishing  and
maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this  responsibility,  estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of controls.  Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to
the entity's objective of preparing  financial  statements for external purposes
that are fairly  presented in  conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.   Those  controls   include  the   safeguarding  of  assets  against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent  limitations in internal  control,  errors or irregularities
may occur and not be detected.  Also,  projection of any  evaluation of internal
control to future periods is subject to the risks that it may become  inadequate
because of changes in  conditions  or that the  effectiveness  of the design and
operation may deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in  internal   control  that  might  be  material   weaknesses  under  standards
established  by the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.  A
material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be material in relation
to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a
timely  period by employees in the normal course of  performing  their  assigned
functions.  However,  we noted no matters  involving  internal  control  and its
operation,  including controls over safeguarding securities, that we consider to
be material weaknesses as defined above as of June 30, 2000.

This report is intended solely for the  information  and use of management,  the
Board of Trustees of Wells Fargo  Funds Trust and the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
those specified parties.
