Large Cap Growth Fund Summary

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Fees and Expenses

These tables are intended to help you understand the various costs and expenses you will pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)
Maximum sales charge (load) imposed on purchases (as a percentage of offering price)	None
Maximum deferred sales charge (load) (as a percentage of offering price)	None

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Management Fees	0.65%
Distribution (12b-1) Fees	0.25%
Other Expenses	0.60%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	1.50%
Fee Waivers	0.18%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver1	1.32%

1. The Adviser has committed through November 30, 2013 to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to cap the Fund's Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver, excluding certain expenses, at the amount shown above. After this time, such cap may be changed or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees.

Example of Expenses

The example below is intended to help you compare the costs of investing in the Fund with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes a $10,000 initial investment, 5% annual total return, and that operating expenses remain the same as in the tables above. The example also assumes that the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver shown above will only be in place for the length of the current waiver commitment. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

After:
1 Year	$134
3 Years	$456
5 Years	$801
10 Years	$1,775

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 47% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

Under normal circumstances, we invest at least 80% of the Fund's net assets in equity securities of large-capitalization companies and up to 25% of the Fund's total assets in equity securities of foreign issuers, through ADRs and similar investments.

We invest principally in equity securities of large-capitalization companies that we believe have prospects for robust and sustainable growth of revenues and earnings. We define large-capitalization companies as those with market capitalizations within the range of the Russell 1000® Index. The market capitalization range of the Russell 1000® Index was $526 million to $384 billion, as of June 27, 2011, and is expected to change frequently. We may also invest in equity securities of foreign issuers, through ADRs and similar investments. We focus on companies that dominate their market, are establishing new markets or are undergoing dynamic change. We believe earnings and revenue growth relative to expectations are critical factors in determining stock price movements. Thus, our investment process is centered around finding companies with under-appreciated prospects for robust and sustainable growth in earnings and revenue. To find that growth, we use bottom-up research, emphasizing companies whose management teams have a history of successfully executing their strategy and whose business model has sufficient profit potential. We forecast revenue and earnings revision opportunities, along with other key financial metrics to assess investment potential. We then combine that company-specific analysis with our assessment of secular and timeliness trends to form a buy/sell decision about a particular stock. We may invest in any sector, and at times we may emphasize one or more particular sectors. We sell a company's securities when we see deterioration in fundamentals that leads us to become suspicious of a company's prospective growth profile or the profitability potential of its business model, as this often leads to lower valuation potential. We may also sell or trim a position when we need to raise money to fund the purchase of a better investment opportunity or when valuation is extended beyond our bullish expectations.

Principal Investment Risks

An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or its affiliates, is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency, and is primarily subject to the risks briefly summarized below, including loss of money.

Foreign Investment Risk. Foreign investments face the potential of heightened illiquidity, greater price volatility and adverse effects of political, regulatory, tax, currency, economic or other macroeconomic developments.

Growth Style Investment Risk. Growth stocks may be more expensive relative to the values of other stocks and carry potential for significant volatility and loss.

Issuer Risk. The value of a security may decline because of adverse events or circumstances that directly relate to conditions at the issuer or any entity providing it credit or liquidity support.

Larger Company Securities Risk. Securities of companies with larger market capitalizations may underperform securities of companies with smaller and mid-sized market capitalizations in certain economic environments.

Liquidity Risk. A security may not be able to be sold at the time desired or without adversely affecting the price.

Management Risk. There is no guarantee of the Fund's performance or that the Fund will meet its objective. The market value of your investment may decline and you may suffer investment loss.

Market Risk. The market price of securities owned by the Fund may rapidly or unpredictably decline due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries.

Regulatory Risk. Changes in government regulations may adversely affect the value of a security. An insufficiently regulated industry or market might also permit inappropriate practices that adversely affect an investment.

Sector Emphasis Risk. Investing a substantial portion of the Fund's assets in related industries or sectors may have greater risks because companies in these sectors may share common characteristics and may react similarly to market developments.

Performance

The following information provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund's performance from year to year. The Fund's average annual total returns are compared to the performance of one or more indices. Past performance before and after taxes is no guarantee of future results. Current month-end performance is available on the Fund's Web site at wellsfargoadvantagefunds.com.

Calendar Year Total Returns as of 12/31 each year
Class R¹

Highest Quarter: 3rd Quarter 2009	+14.36%
Lowest Quarter: 4th Quarter 2008	-22.21%
Year-to-date total return as of 3/31/2012 is 17.89%

Average Annual Total Returns for the periods ended 12/31/2011
	Inception Date of Share Class	1 Year	5 Year	10 Year
Class R1	06/15/2012	2.90%	3.45%	2.52%
Russell 1000® Growth Index (reflects no deduction for fees, expenses, or taxes)		2.64%	2.50%	2.60%

1. The inception date of Class R shares was June 15, 2012. Performance shown reflects the performance of the Investor Class shares, and includes expenses that are not applicable to and are lower than those of the Class R shares. The Investor Class shares annual returns are substantially similar to what the Class R annual returns would be because the Class R and Investor Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and their returns differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

References to the investment activities of a gateway fund are intended to refer to the investment activities of the master portfolio(s) in which it invests.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares

Class R shares generally are available only to certain retirement plans, including: 401(k) plans, 457 plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, target benefit plans and non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Class R shares also are generally available only to retirement plans where plan level or omnibus accounts are held on the books of the Fund. Class R shares generally are not available to retail accounts.

For Class R shares, eligible retirement plans of qualifying size generally may open an account and purchase Class R shares by contacting certain broker-dealers and financial institutions that have selling agreements with Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC (WFFD). These entities may impose transaction charges. Additional shares may be purchased through a retirement plan's administrator or record-keeper.

Institutions Purchasing Fund Shares

Minimum Initial Investment
Class R: Eligible investors are not subject to a minimum initial investment (financial intermediaries may require different minimum investment amounts) Minimum Additional Investment
Class R: None (financial intermediaries may require different minimum additional investment amounts)

Tax Information

By investing in a Fund through a tax-deferred retirement account, you will not be subject to tax on dividends and capital gains distributions from the Fund or the sale of Fund shares if those amounts remain in the tax-deferred account. Distributions taken from retirement plan accounts generally are taxable as ordinary income. For special rules concerning tax-deferred retirement accounts, including applications, restrictions, tax advantages, and potential sales charge waivers, contact your investment professional. To determine if a retirement plan may be appropriate for you and to obtain further information, consult your tax adviser.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase a Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Consult your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's Web site for more information.

Fund Inception:	12/30/1981
Class R	Ticker: STMFX	Fund Number: 3615

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

The Fund's Board of Trustees can change this investment objective without a shareholder vote.

Principal Investments

Under normal circumstances, we invest:

■

at least 80% of the Fund's net assets in equity securities of large-capitalization companies; and

■

up to 25% of the Fund's total assets in equity securities of foreign issuers, through ADRs and similar investments.

Principal Investment Strategies

We invest principally in equity securities of large-capitalization companies that we believe have prospects for robust and sustainable growth of revenues and earnings. We define large-capitalization companies as those with market capitalizations within the range of the Russell 1000® Index. The market capitalization range of the Russell 1000® Index was $526 million to $384 billion, as of June 27, 2011, and is expected to change frequently. We may also invest in equity securities of foreign issuers, through ADRs and similar investments. We focus on companies that dominate their market, are establishing new markets or are undergoing dynamic change. We believe earnings and revenue growth relative to expectations are critical factors in determining stock price movements. Thus, our investment process is centered around finding companies with under-appreciated prospects for robust and sustainable growth in earnings and revenue. To find that growth, we use bottom-up research, emphasizing companies whose management teams have a history of successfully executing their strategy and whose business model has sufficient profit potential. We forecast revenue and earnings revision opportunities, along with other key financial metrics to assess investment potential. We then combine that company-specific analysis with our assessment of secular and timeliness trends to form a buy/sell decision about a particular stock. We may invest in any sector, and at times we may emphasize one or more particular sectors. We sell a company's securities when we see deterioration in fundamentals that leads us to become suspicious of a company's prospective growth profile or the profitability potential of its business model, as this often leads to lower valuation potential. We may also sell or trim a position when we need to raise money to fund the purchase of a better investment opportunity or when valuation is extended beyond our bullish expectations. We may actively trade portfolio securities, which may lead to higher transaction costs that may affect the Fund's performance. In addition, active trading of portfolio securities may lead to higher taxes if your shares are held in a taxable account.

The Fund may hold some of its assets in cash or in money market instruments, including U.S. Government obligations, shares of other mutual funds and repurchase agreements, or make other short-term investments to either maintain liquidity or for short-term defensive purposes when we believe it is in the best interests of the shareholders to do so. During these periods, the Fund may not achieve its objective.

Principal Risk Factors

The Fund is primarily subject to the risks mentioned below.

■ Foreign Investment Risk ■ Growth Style Investment Risk ■ Issuer Risk ■ Larger Company Securities Risk ■ Liquidity Risk ■ Management Risk ■ Market Risk ■ Regulatory Risk ■ Sector Emphasis Risk

These and other risks could cause you to lose money in your investment in the Fund and could adversely affect the Fund's net asset value and total return. These risks are described in the "Description of Principal Investment Risks" section.

Description of Principal Investment Risks

Understanding the risks involved in mutual fund investing will help you make an informed decision that takes into account your risk tolerance and preferences. The factors that are most likely to have a material effect on the Fund as a whole are called "principal risks." The principal risks for the Fund have been previously identified and are described below. Additional information about the principal risks is included in the Statement of Additional Information.

Foreign Investment Risk
Foreign investments, including American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and similar investments, are subject to more risks than U.S. domestic investments. These additional risks may potentially include lower liquidity, greater price volatility and risks related to adverse political, regulatory, market or economic developments. Foreign companies also may be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing the earnings potential of such foreign companies. In addition, amounts realized on sales or distributions of foreign securities may be subject to high and potentially confiscatory levels of foreign taxation and withholding when compared to comparable transactions in U.S. securities. Investments in foreign securities involve exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such changes may reduce the U.S. dollar value of the investment. Foreign investments are also subject to risks including potentially higher withholding and other taxes, trade settlement, custodial, and other operational risks and less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards in certain foreign markets. In addition, foreign markets can and often do perform differently from U.S. markets.

Growth Style Investment Risk
Growth stocks can perform differently from the market as a whole and from other types of stocks. Growth stocks may be designated as such and purchased based on the premise that the market will eventually reward a given company's long-term earnings growth with a higher stock price when that company's earnings grow faster than both inflation and the economy in general. Thus a growth style investment strategy attempts to identify companies whose earnings may or are growing at a rate faster than inflation and the economy. While growth stocks may react differently to issuer, political, market and economic developments than the market as a whole and other types of stocks by rising in price in certain environments, growth stocks also tend to be sensitive to changes in the earnings of their underlying companies and more volatile than other types of stocks, particularly over the short term. Furthermore, growth stocks may be more expensive relative to their current earnings or assets compared to the values of other stocks, and if earnings growth expectations moderate, their valuations may return to more typical norms, causing their stock prices to fall. Finally, during periods of adverse economic and market conditions, the stock prices of growth stocks may fall despite favorable earnings trends.

Issuer Risk
The value of a security may decline for a number of reasons that directly relate to the issuer or an entity providing credit support or liquidity support, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer's goods, services or securities.

Larger Company Securities Risk
Securities of companies with larger market capitalizations may underperform securities of companies with smaller and mid-sized market capitalizations in certain economic environments. Larger, more established companies might be unable to react as quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology and consumer tastes. Some larger companies may be unable to grow at rates higher than the fastest growing smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion.

Liquidity Risk
A security may not be able to be sold at the time desired or without adversely affecting the price.

Management Risk
We cannot guarantee that a Fund will meet its investment objective. We do not guarantee the performance of a Fund, nor can we assure you that the market value of your investment will not decline. We will not "make good" on any investment loss you may suffer, nor does anyone we contract with to provide services promise to make good on any such losses.

Market Risk
The market price of securities owned by a Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Securities may decline in value or become illiquid due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries represented in the securities markets, such as labor shortages or increased production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. A security may decline in value or become illiquid due to general market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. During a general downturn in the securities markets, multiple asset classes may decline in value or become illiquid simultaneously. Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than debt securities.

Regulatory Risk
Changes in government regulations may adversely affect the value of a security. An insufficiently regulated industry or market might also permit inappropriate practices that adversely affect an investment.

Sector Emphasis Risk Investing a substantial portion of a Fund's assets in related industries or sectors may have greater risks because companies in these sectors may share common characteristics and may react similarly to market developments.

Portfolio Holdings Information

A description of the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds' policies and procedures with respect to disclosure of the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds' portfolio holdings is available in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information and on the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds' Web site at wellsfargoadvantagefunds.com. In addition, Funds Management will, from time to time, include portfolio holdings information in periodic commentaries for the Fund. The substance of the information contained in such commentaries will also be posted to the Fund's Web site at wellsfargoadvantagefunds.com.

Organization and Management of the Fund

About Wells Fargo Funds Trust

The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on March 10, 1999. The Board of Trustees of the Trust ("Board") supervises the Fund's activities, monitors its contractual arrangements with various service providers and decides on matters of general policy.

The Board supervises the Fund and approves the selection of various companies hired to manage the Fund's operations. Except for the Fund's advisers, which generally may be changed only with shareholder approval, other service providers may be changed by the Board without shareholder approval.

The Adviser

Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC, located at 525 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, serves as the adviser for the Fund. Funds Management, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company, was created to assume the mutual fund advisory responsibilities of Wells Fargo Bank and is an affiliate of Wells Fargo Bank. Wells Fargo Bank, which was founded in 1852, is the oldest bank in the western United States and is one of the largest banks in the United States. As adviser, Funds Management is responsible for implementing the investment policies and guidelines for the Fund and for supervising the sub-adviser who is responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. For providing these services, Funds Management is entitled to receive fees as described in the Fund's table of Annual Fund Operating Expenses under the caption "Management Fees." A discussion regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements is available in the Fund's most recent annual report for the fiscal period ending July 31st.

For the Fund's most recent fiscal year end, the advisory fee paid to Funds Management, net of any applicable waivers and reimbursements, was as follows:

Advisory Fees Paid
	As a % of average daily net assets
Large Cap Growth Fund	0.52%

Wells Fargo & Company is a diversified financial services company providing banking, insurance, investments, mortgage and consumer finance services. The involvement of various subsidiaries of Wells Fargo & Company, including Funds Management, in the management and operation of the Funds and in providing other services or managing other accounts gives rise to certain actual and potential conflicts of interest.

For example, certain investments may be appropriate for a Fund and also for other clients advised by Funds Management and its affiliates, and there may be market or regulatory limits on the amount of investment, which may cause competition for limited positions. Also, various client and proprietary accounts may at times take positions that are adverse to a Fund. Funds Management applies various policies to address these situations, but a Fund may nonetheless incur losses or underperformance during periods when Wells Fargo & Company, its affiliates and their clients achieve gains or outperformance.

Wells Fargo & Company may have interests in or provide services to portfolio companies or Fund shareholders or intermediaries that may not be fully aligned with the interests of all investors. Funds Management and its affiliates serve in multiple roles, including as adviser and, for most Wells Fargo Advantage Funds, sub-adviser, as well as administrator and principal underwriter.

These are all considerations of which an investor should be aware and which may cause conflicts that could disadvantage a Fund. Funds Management has instituted business and compliance policies, procedures and disclosures that are designed to identify, monitor and mitigate conflicts of interest.

The Sub-Adviser and Portfolio Managers

The following sub-adviser and portfolio managers perform day-to-day investment management activities for the Fund. The sub-adviser is compensated for its services by Funds Management from the fees Funds Management receives for its services as adviser to the Fund. The Statement of Additional Information provides additional information about the portfolio managers' compensation, other accounts managed by the portfolio managers and the portfolio managers' ownership of securities in the Fund.

Wells Capital Management Incorporated (Wells Capital Management), an affiliate of Funds Management, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Wells Fargo & Company, located at 525 Market Street, San Francisco,CA 94105, is the sub-adviser for the Fund. Accordingly, Wells Capital Management is responsible for the day-to-day investment management activities of the Fund. Wells Capital Management is a registered investment adviser that provides investment advisory services for registered mutual funds, company retirement plans, foundations, endowments, trust companies, and high net-worth individuals.

Dormant Multi-Manager Arrangement

The Board has adopted a "multi-manager" arrangement for the Fund. Under this arrangement, the Fund and Funds Management may engage one or more sub-advisers to make day-to-day investment decisions for the Fund's assets. Funds Management would retain ultimate responsibility (subject to the oversight of the Board) for overseeing the sub-advisers and may, at times, recommend to the Board that the Fund: (1) change, add or terminate one or more sub-advisers; (2) continue to retain a sub-adviser even though the sub-adviser's ownership or corporate structure has changed; or (3) materially change a sub-advisory agreement with a sub-adviser.

Applicable law generally requires a Fund to obtain shareholder approval for most of these types of recommendations, even if the Board approves the proposed action. Under the "multi-manager" arrangement approved by the Board, the Fund may seek exemptive relief, if necessary, from the SEC to permit Funds Management (subject to the Board's oversight and approval) to make decisions about the Fund's sub-advisory arrangements without obtaining shareholder approval. There is no guarantee the SEC would grant such exemptive relief. The Fund will continue to submit matters to shareholders for their approval to the extent required by applicable law. Meanwhile, this multi-manager arrangement will remain dormant and will not be implemented until shareholders are further notified.

Compensation to Dealers and Shareholder Servicing Agents

Distribution Plan The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (12b-1 Plan) pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for the Class R shares. The 12b-1 Plan authorizes the payment of all or part of the cost of preparing and distributing prospectuses and distribution-related services or other activities including ongoing compensation to selling agents. The 12b-1 Plan also provides that, if and to the extent any shareholder servicing payments are recharacterized as payments for distribution-related services, they are approved and payable under the 12b-1 Plan. Class R shares of the Fund pay 0.25% under this 12b-1 Plan.

These fees are paid out of the Class's assets on an ongoing basis. Over time, these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than other types of sales charges.

Shareholder Servicing Plan
The Fund has a shareholder servicing plan. Under this plan, the Fund has agreements with various shareholder servicing agents to process purchase and redemption requests, to service shareholder accounts, and to provide other related services to the Class R shares. For these services, the Fund pays an annual fee of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets. Selling or shareholder servicing agents, in turn, may pay some or all of these amounts to their employees or registered representatives who recommend or sell Fund shares or make investment decisions on behalf of their clients.

Additional Payments to Dealers In addition to dealer reallowances and payments made by the Fund for distribution and shareholder servicing, the Fund's adviser, the distributor or its affiliates make additional payments ("Additional Payments") to certain selling or shareholder servicing agents for the Fund, which include broker-dealers and 401(k) service providers and recordkeepers. These Additional Payments are made in connection with the sale and distribution of shares of the Fund or for services to the Fund and its shareholders. These Additional Payments, which may be significant, are paid by the Fund's adviser, the distributor or their affiliates, out of their revenues, which generally come directly or indirectly from fees paid by the entire Fund complex.

In return for these Additional Payments, the Fund's adviser and distributor expect the Fund to receive certain marketing or servicing advantages that are not generally available to mutual funds that do not make such payments. Such advantages are expected to include, without limitation, placement of the Fund on a list of mutual funds offered as investment options to the selling agent's clients (sometimes referred to as "Shelf Space"); access to the selling agent's registered representatives; and/or ability to assist in training and educating the selling agent's registered representatives.

Certain selling or shareholder servicing agents receive these Additional Payments to supplement amounts payable by the Fund under the shareholder servicing plans. In exchange, these agents provide services including, but not limited to, establishing and maintaining accounts and records; answering inquiries regarding purchases, exchanges and redemptions; processing and verifying purchase, redemption and exchange transactions; furnishing account statements and confirmations of transactions; processing and mailing monthly statements, prospectuses, shareholder reports and other SEC-required communications; and providing the types of services that might typically be provided by the Fund's transfer agent (e.g., the maintenance of omnibus or omnibus-like accounts, the use of the National Securities Clearing Corporation for the transmission of transaction information and the transmission of shareholder mailings).

The Additional Payments may create potential conflicts of interests between an investor and a selling agent who is recommending a particular mutual fund over other mutual funds. Before investing, you should consult with your financial consultant and review carefully any disclosure by the selling agent as to what monies they receive from mutual fund advisers and distributors, as well as how your financial consultant is compensated.

The Additional Payments are typically paid in fixed dollar amounts, or based on the number of customer accounts maintained by the selling or shareholder servicing agent, or based on a percentage of sales and/or assets under management, or a combination of the above. The Additional Payments are either up-front or ongoing or both. The Additional Payments differ among selling and shareholder servicing agents. Additional Payments to a selling agent that is compensated based on its customers' assets typically range between 0.05% and 0.30% in a given year of assets invested in the Fund by the selling agent's customers. Additional Payments to a selling agent that is compensated based on a percentage of sales typically range between 0.10% and 0.15% of the gross sales of the Fund attributable to the selling agent. In addition, representatives of the Fund's distributor visit selling agents on a regular basis to educate their registered representatives and to encourage the sale of Fund shares. The costs associated with such visits may be paid for by the Fund's adviser, distributor, or their affiliates, subject to applicable FINRA regulations.

More information on the FINRA member firms that have received the Additional Payments described in this section is available in the Statement of Additional Information, which is on file with the SEC and is also available on the Wells Fargo Advantage Funds website at wellsfargoadvantagefunds.com.

Pricing Fund Shares

The share price ("net asset value per share" or "NAV") for a Fund is calculated each business day as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (generally 4 p.m. ET). To calculate a Fund's NAV, the Fund's assets are valued and totaled, liabilities are subtracted, and the balance, called net assets, is divided by the number of shares outstanding. The price at which a purchase or redemption of Fund shares is effected is based on the next calculation of NAV after the order is placed. The Fund does not calculate its NAV on days the NYSE is closed for trading, which include New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Washington's Birthday, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day.

With respect to any portion of a Fund's assets that may be invested in other mutual funds, the Fund's NAV is calculated based upon the net asset values of the other mutual funds in which the Fund invests, and the prospectuses for those companies explain the circumstances under which those companies will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.

With respect to any portion of a Fund's assets invested directly in securities, the Fund's investments are generally valued at current market prices. Securities are generally valued based on the last sale price during the regular trading session if the security trades on an exchange (closing price). Securities that are not traded primarily on an exchange generally are valued using latest quoted bid prices obtained by an independent pricing service. Securities listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., however, are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price ("NOCP"), and if no NOCP is available, then at the last reported sales price.

We are required to depart from these general valuation methods and use fair value pricing methods to determine the values of certain investments if we believe that the closing price or the latest quoted bid price of a security, including securities that trade primarily on a foreign exchange, does not accurately reflect its current value when the Fund calculates its NAV. In addition, we use fair value pricing to determine the value of investments in securities and other assets, including illiquid securities, for which current market quotations are not readily available. The closing price or the latest quoted bid price of a security may not reflect its current value if, among other things, a significant event occurs after the closing price or latest quoted bid price but before a Fund calculates its NAV that materially affects the value of the security. We use various criteria, including a systematic evaluation of U.S. market moves after the close of foreign markets, in deciding whether a foreign security's market price is still reliable and, if not, what fair market value to assign to the security.

In light of the judgment involved in fair value decisions, there can be no assurance that a fair value assigned to a particular security is accurate or that it reflects the price that the Fund could obtain for such security if it were to sell the security as of the time of fair value pricing. Such fair value pricing may result in NAVs that are higher or lower than NAVs based on the closing price or latest quoted bid price. See the Statement of Additional Information for additional details regarding the pricing of Fund shares.

How to Buy Shares

Class R shares generally are available only to certain retirement plans, including: 401(k) plans, 457 plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, target benefit plans and non-qualified deferred compensation plans. Class R shares also are generally available only to retirement plans where plan level or omnibus accounts are held on the books of the Fund. Class R shares generally are not available to retail accounts. Eligible retirement plans of qualifying size generally may open an account and purchase Class R shares by contacting certain broker-dealers and financial institutions that have selling agreements with WFFD. These entities may impose transaction charges. Additional shares may be purchased through a retirement plan's administrator or record-keeper.

General Notes for Buying Shares

■

Proper Form. If the transfer agent receives your new account application or purchase request in proper form before the close of the NYSE, your transaction will be priced at that day's NAV. If your new account application or purchase request is received in proper form after the close of trading on the NYSE, your transaction will be priced at the next business day's NAV. If your new account application or purchase request is not in proper form, additional documentation may be required to process your transaction.

■

Earnings Distributions. You are eligible to earn distributions beginning on the business day after the transfer agent receives your purchase in proper form.

■

U.S. Dollars Only. All payment must be made in U.S. dollars and all checks must be drawn on U.S. banks.

■

Right to Refuse an Order. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason, including if we believe that doing so would be in the best interests of a Fund and its shareholders.

Special Considerations When Investing Through Financial Intermediaries:
If a financial intermediary purchases Class R shares on your behalf, you should understand the following:

■

Minimum Investments and Other Terms of Your Account. Share purchases are made through a customer account at your financial intermediary following that firm's terms. Financial intermediaries may require different minimum investment amounts. Please consult an account representative from your financial intermediary for specifics.

■

Records are Held in Financial Intermediary's Name. Financial intermediaries are usually the holders of record for Class R shares held through their customer accounts. The financial intermediaries maintain records reflecting their customers' beneficial ownership of the shares.

■

Purchase/Redemption Orders. Financial intermediaries are responsible for transmitting their customers' purchase and redemption orders to the Fund and for delivering required payment on a timely basis.

■

Shareholder Communications. Financial intermediaries are responsible for delivering shareholder communications and voting information from the Fund, and for transmitting shareholder voting instructions to the Fund.

The information provided in this Prospectus is not intended for distribution to, or use by, any person or entity in any non-U.S. jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation, or which would subject Fund shares to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country.

The Fund is distributed by Wells Fargo Funds Distributor, LLC, a member of FINRA/SIPC, and an affiliate of Wells Fargo & Company. Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC") information and brochure are available at SIPC.org or by calling SIPC at (202) 371-8300.

How to Sell Shares

Class R shares must be redeemed according to the terms of your customer account with your financial intermediary. You should contact your investment representative when you wish to sell Fund shares.

General Notes for Selling Shares 

■

Proper Form. If the transfer agent receives your request to sell shares in proper form before the close of the NYSE, your transaction will be priced at that day's NAV. If your request to sell shares is received in proper form after the close of trading on the NYSE, it will be priced at the next business day's NAV. If your request is not in proper form, additional documentation may be required to sell your shares.

■

Earnings Distributions. Your shares are eligible to earn distributions through the date of redemption. If you redeem shares on a Friday or prior to a holiday, your shares will continue to be eligible to earn distributions until the next business day.

■

Right to Delay Payment. We normally will send out checks within one business day, and in any event no more than seven days, after we accept your request to redeem. If you redeem shares recently purchased by check or through Electronic Funds Transfer, you may be required to wait up to seven business days before we will send your redemption proceeds. Our ability to determine with reasonable certainty that investments have been finally collected is greater for investments coming from accounts with banks affiliated with Funds Management than it is for investments coming from accounts with unaffiliated banks. Redemption payments also may be delayed under extraordinary circumstances or as permitted by the SEC in order to protect remaining shareholders. Such extraordinary circumstances are discussed further in the Statement of Additional Information.

■

Redemption in Kind. Although generally we pay redemption requests in cash, we reserve the right to determine in our sole discretion, whether to satisfy redemption requests by making payment in securities (known as a redemption in kind). In such case, we may pay all or part of the redemption in securities of equal value as permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, and the rules thereunder. The redeeming shareholders should expect to incur transaction costs upon the disposition of the securities received.

■

Retirement Plans and Other Products. If you purchased shares through a packaged investment product or retirement plan, read the directions for selling shares provided by the product or plan. There may be special requirements that supersede the directions in this Prospectus.

How to Exchange Shares

Exchanges between Wells Fargo Advantage Funds involve two transactions: (1) a sale of shares of one Fund; and (2) the purchase of shares of another. In general, the same rules and procedures that apply to sales and purchases apply to exchanges. There are, however, additional factors you should keep in mind while making or considering an exchange: 

■

In general, exchanges may be made between like share classes of any Wells Fargo Advantage Fund offered to the general public for investment (i.e., a Fund not closed to new accounts).

■

Same-fund exchanges between Class A, Class C, Administrator Class, Institutional Class and Investor Class shares are permitted subject to the following conditions: (1) exchanges out of Class A and Class C shares would not be allowed if shares are subject to a CDSC; (2) in order for exchanges into Class A shares, the shareholder must be able to qualify to purchase Class A shares at net asset value based on current prospectus guidelines; and (3) the shareholder must meet the eligibility guidelines of the class being purchased in the exchange.

■

An exchange request will be processed on the same business day, provided that both Funds are open at the time the request is received. If one or both Funds are closed, the exchange will be processed on the following business day.

■

You should carefully read the prospectus for the Wells Fargo Advantage Fund into which you wish to exchange. 

■

Every exchange involves selling Fund shares, which may produce a capital gain or loss for tax purposes. 

■

If you are making an initial investment into a Fund through an exchange, you must exchange at least the minimum initial purchase amount for the new Fund, unless your balance has fallen below that amount due to investment performance. 

■

Any exchange between two Wells Fargo Advantage Funds must meet the minimum subsequent purchase amounts. 

Generally, we will notify you at least 60 days in advance of any changes in our exchange policy.

Frequent Purchases and Redemptions of Fund Shares

The Funds reserve the right to reject any purchase or exchange order for any reason. The Funds are not designed to serve as vehicles for frequent trading. Purchases or exchanges that a Fund determines could harm the Fund may be rejected.

Excessive trading by Fund shareholders can negatively impact a Fund and its long-term shareholders in several ways, including by disrupting Fund investment strategies, increasing transaction costs, decreasing tax efficiency, and diluting the value of shares held by long-term shareholders. Excessive trading in Fund shares can negatively impact a Fund's long-term performance by requiring it to maintain more assets in cash or to liquidate portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time. Certain Funds may be more susceptible than others to these negative effects. For example, Funds that have a greater percentage of their investments in non-U.S. securities may be more susceptible than other Funds to arbitrage opportunities resulting from pricing variations due to time zone differences across international financial markets. Similarly, Funds that have a greater percentage of their investments in small company securities may be more susceptible than other Funds to arbitrage opportunities due to the less liquid nature of small company securities. Both types of Funds also may incur higher transaction costs in liquidating portfolio holdings to meet excessive redemption levels. Fair value pricing may reduce these arbitrage opportunities, thereby reducing some of the negative effects of excessive trading.

The Funds actively discourage and take steps to prevent the portfolio disruption and negative effects on long-term shareholders that can result from excessive trading activity by Fund shareholders. The Board has approved the Funds' policies and procedures, which provide, among other things, that Funds Management may deem trading activity to be excessive if it determines that such trading activity would likely be disruptive to a Fund by increasing expenses or lowering returns. In this regard, the Funds take steps to avoid accommodating frequent purchases and redemptions of shares by Fund shareholders. Funds Management monitors available shareholder trading information across all Funds on a daily basis. If a shareholder redeems more than $5,000 (including redemptions that are part of an exchange transaction) from a Fund, that shareholder will be "blocked" from purchasing shares of that Fund (including purchases that are part of an exchange transaction) for 30 calendar days after the redemption. This policy does not apply to:

■

Money market funds; 

■

Adjustable Rate Government Fund, Ultra Short-Term Income Fund and Ultra Short-Term Municipal Income Fund (the "Ultra Short Funds");

■

Purchases of shares through dividend reinvestments or capital gain distributions; 

■

Systematic purchases, redemptions or exchanges where a financial intermediary maintaining a shareholder account identifies the transaction as a systematic purchase, redemption or exchange at the time of the transaction; 

■

Rebalancing transactions within certain asset allocation or "wrap" programs where the financial intermediary maintaining a shareholder account is able to identify the transaction as part of an asset allocation program approved by Funds Management; 

■

Transactions initiated by a registered "fund of funds" or Section 529 Plan into an underlying fund investment; 

■

Permitted exchanges between share classes of the same Fund;

■

Certain transactions involving participants in employer-sponsored retirement plans, including: participant withdrawals due to mandatory distributions, rollovers and hardships, withdrawals of shares acquired by participants through payroll deductions, and shares purchased or redeemed by a participant in connection with plan loans; and 

■

Purchases below $5,000 (including purchases that are part of an exchange transaction).

In the event that an asset allocation or "wrap" program is unable to implement the policy outlined above, Funds Management may grant a program-level exception to this policy. A financial intermediary relying on the exception is required to provide Funds Management with specific information regarding its program and ongoing information about its program upon request.

Because the Ultra Short Funds are often used for short-term investments, they are designed to accommodate more frequent purchases and redemptions than longer-term funds. As a result, the Ultra Short Funds do not anticipate that frequent purchases and redemptions, under normal circumstances, will have significant adverse consequences to the Ultra Short Funds or their shareholders. Although the policies adopted by the Ultra Short Funds do not prohibit frequent trading, Funds Management will seek to prevent an investor from utilizing the Ultra Short Funds to facilitate frequent purchases and redemptions of shares in longer-term funds in contravention of the policies and procedures adopted by the longer-term funds.

In addition, Funds Management reserves the right to accept purchases, redemptions and exchanges made in excess of applicable trading restrictions in designated accounts held by Funds Management or its affiliates that are used exclusively for addressing operational matters related to shareholder accounts, such as testing of account functions, and are maintained at low balances that do not exceed specified dollar amount limitations.

A financial intermediary through whom you may purchase shares of a Fund may independently attempt to identify excessive trading and take steps to deter such activity. As a result, a financial intermediary may on its own limit or permit trading activity of its customers who invest in Fund shares using standards different from the standards used by Funds Management and described in this Prospectus. Funds Management may permit a financial intermediary to enforce its own internal policies and procedures concerning frequent trading in instances where Funds Management reasonably believes that the intermediary's policies and procedures effectively discourage disruptive trading activity. If you purchase Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you should contact the intermediary for more information about the restrictions or limitations on trading activity that will be applied to your account.

Account Policies

Advance Notice of Large Transactions We strongly urge you to begin all purchases and redemptions as early in the day as possible and to notify us at least one day in advance of transactions in excess of $5,000,000. This will allow us to manage the Fund most effectively. When you give us this advance notice, you must provide us with your name and account number.

Householding To help keep Fund expenses low, a single copy of a prospectus or shareholder report may be sent to shareholders of the same household. If your household currently receives a single copy of a prospectus or shareholder report and you would prefer to receive multiple copies, please contact your financial intermediary.

Retirement Accounts We offer prototype documents for a variety of retirement accounts for individuals and small businesses. Please call 1-800-222-8222 for information on:

■

Individual Retirement Plans, including Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs.

■

Qualified Retirement Plans, including Simple IRAs, SEP IRAs, Keoghs, Pension Plans, Profit-Sharing Plans, and 401(k) Plans.

There may be special distribution requirements for a retirement account, such as required distributions or mandatory Federal income tax withholdings. For more information, call the number listed above. You may be charged a $10 annual account maintenance fee for each retirement account up to a maximum of $30 annually and a $25 fee for transferring assets to another custodian or for closing a retirement account. Fees charged by institutions may vary.

Small Account Redemptions We reserve the right to redeem certain accounts that fall below the minimum initial investment amount as the result of shareholder redemptions (as opposed to market movement). Before doing so, we will give you approximately 60 days to bring your account above the minimum investment amount. Please call Investor Services at 1-800-222-8222 or contact your selling agent for further details.

Statements and Confirmations Statements summarizing activity in your account are mailed quarterly. Confirmations are mailed following each purchase, sale, exchange, or transfer of Fund shares, except generally for Automatic Investment Plan transactions, Systematic Withdrawal Plan transactions using Electronic Funds Transfer, and purchases of new shares through the automatic reinvestment of distributions. Upon your request and for the applicable fee, you may obtain a reprint of an account statement. Please call Investor Services at 1-800-222-8222 for more information.

Electronic Delivery of Fund Documents You may elect to receive your Fund prospectuses, shareholder reports and other Fund documents electronically in lieu of paper form by enrolling on the Fund's Web site at www.wellsfargo.com/advantagedelivery. If you make this election, you will be notified by e-mail when the most recent Fund documents are available for electronic viewing and downloading.

To receive Fund documents electronically, you must have an e-mail account and an internet browser that meets the requirements described in the Privacy & Security section of the Fund's Web site at wellsfargoadvantagefunds.com. You may change your electronic delivery preferences or revoke your election to receive Fund documents electronically at any time by visiting wellsfargo.com/advantagedelivery.

Statement Inquiries Contact us in writing regarding any errors or discrepancies noted on your account statement within 60 days after the date of the statement confirming a transaction. We may deny your ability to refute a transaction if we do not hear from you within those 60 days.

Transaction Authorizations Telephone, electronic, and clearing agency privileges allow us to accept transaction instructions by anyone representing themselves as the shareholder and who provides reasonable confirmation of their identity. Neither we nor Wells Fargo Advantage Funds will be liable for any losses incurred if we follow such instructions we reasonably believe to be genuine. For transactions through the automated phone system and our Web site, we will assign personal identification numbers (PINs) and/or passwords to help protect your account information. To safeguard your account, please keep your PINs and passwords confidential. Contact us immediately if you believe there is a discrepancy on your confirmation statement or if you believe someone has obtained unauthorized access to your account, PIN or password.

USA PATRIOT Act In compliance with the USA PATRIOT Act, all financial institutions (including mutual funds) at the time an account is opened, are required to obtain, verify and record the following information for all registered owners or others who may be authorized to act on the account: full name, date of birth, taxpayer identification number (usually your Social Security Number), and permanent street address. Corporate, trust and other entity accounts require additional documentation. This information will be used to verify your identity. We will return your application if any of this information is missing, and we may request additional information from you for verification purposes. In the rare event that we are unable to verify your identity, we reserve the right to redeem your account at the current day's NAV. You will be responsible for any losses, taxes, expenses, fees, or other results of such a redemption.

Distributions

The Fund generally makes distributions of any net investment income and any realized net capital gains at least annually. Please contact your institution for distribution options. Remember, distributions have the effect of reducing the NAV per share by the amount distributed.

Taxes

By investing in a Fund through a tax-deferred retirement account, you will not be subject to tax on dividends and capital gains distributions from the Fund or the sale of Fund shares if those amounts remain in the tax-deferred account. Distributions taken from retirement plan accounts generally are taxable as ordinary income. For special rules concerning tax-deferred retirement accounts, including applications, restrictions, tax advantages, and potential sales charge waivers, contact your investment professional. To determine if a retirement plan may be appropriate for you and to obtain further information, consult your tax advisor.

Additional Expense and Performance Information

This section contains additional information regarding the expenses and performance of the Fund. The sub-section below titled "Additional Expense Information" provides further information regarding the Fund's Annual Fund Operating Expenses. The sub-section below titled "Index Descriptions" defines the market indices that are referenced in the Fund Summary. The sub-section below titled "Share Class Performance" provides history for specified share classes of the Fund.

Additional Expense Information
Funds Management has contractually committed for a period of time to waive and/or reimburse Fund expenses that exceed a certain specified amount, as set forth in a footnote to the Fund's Annual Fund Operating Expenses table. This contractual expense cap excludes certain expenses that the Fund may incur, such as brokerage commissions, interest, taxes, the expenses of any money market fund or other fund held by the Fund (i.e., acquired fund fees and expenses) and extraordinary expenses. Funds Management will not reimburse the Fund for these types of expenses, even if they cause the Fund's Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses to exceed the amount of the expense cap.

Index Descriptions
The "Average Annual Total Returns" table in the Fund's Fund Summary compares the Fund's returns with those of one or more indices. Below are descriptions of each such index. You cannot invest directly in an index.

Russell 1000^® Growth Index The Russell 1000^® Growth Index measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.

Share Class Performance The following provides additional information about the performance history of the Fund contained in this prospectus, including information regarding predecessor funds, if any, and whether performance information presented is based on the history of an older share class. 

■

Large Cap Growth Fund - Historical performance shown for Class R shares prior to their inception reflects the performance of the Investor Class shares, and are not adjusted to reflect the higher expenses applicable to Class R shares. If the Class R shares were adjusted, returns would be lower. The Investor Class annual returns are substantially similar to what the Class R annual returns would be because the Investor Class and Class R shares are invested in the same portfolio and their returns differ only to the extent that they do not have the same expenses.

A Fund's past performance is no guarantee of future results. A Fund's investment results will fluctuate over time, and any representation of the Fund's returns for any past period should not be considered as a representation of what a Fund's returns may be in any future period. Each Fund's annual and semi-annual reports contain additional performance information and are available upon request, without charge, by calling the telephone number listed on the back cover page of this Prospectus.

Financial Highlights

Because Class R shares of the Fund were not incepted until June 15, 2012, financial highlights are not available for this class of the Fund.

WELLS FARGO ADVANTAGE LARGE CAP GROWTH FUND
STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Please file this Statement of Additional Information with your records.

WELLS FARGO FUNDS TRUST

STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

OF

WELLS FARGO ADVANTAGE LARGE CAP GROWTH FUND (the “Fund”)

Information regarding the Fund in the Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) of the Fund dated December 1, 2011, as supplemented from time to time, is hereby restated as of June 18, 2012 with the changes described below.

Effective June 18, 2012, the Fund now offers Class R shares (STMFX) in addition to the other classes of shares of the Fund shown on the cover page of the SAI.  

The table in the section “Administrator” on page 52 of the SAI is hereby amended to add a row for the Class R shares, so that such row, together with the heading row, now appears as follows:

Share Class	Fund-Level Admin. Fee		Class-Level Admin. Fee		Total Admin. Fee
	Average Daily Net Assets	(% of Average Daily Net Assets)	(% of Average Daily Net Assets)	Average Daily Net Assets	(% of Average Daily Net Assets)
Class R	First $5 billion Next $5 billion Over $10 billion	0.05% 0.04% 0.03%	0.26%	First $5 billion Next $5 billion Over $10 billion	0.31% 0.30% 0.29%

There is no information on administrative fees paid by the Class R shares of the Fund because that class of shares did not commence operations until June 18, 2012.

The second and third paragraphs of the section entitled “Distributor” on page 53 are hereby amended as follows:

The Fund offers Class B, Class C and Class R shares and has adopted a distribution plan (a “Plan”) under Section 12(b) of the 1940 Act and Rule 12b-1 thereunder (the “Rule”) for such shares. The Plan was adopted by the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who were not “interested persons” (as defined under the 1940 Act) of the Fund and who had no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan or in any agreement related to the Plan (the “Non-Interested Trustees”).

Under the Plan and pursuant to the related Distribution Agreement, the Class B, Class C and Class R shares of the Fund pay the Distributor, on a monthly basis, an annual fee of 0.75%, 0.75% and 0.25%, respectively, of the average daily net assets attributable to such class as compensation for distribution-related services or as reimbursement for distribution-related expenses. Class B shares are closed to new investors and additional investments (except in connection with reinvestment of any distributions and permitted exchanges and at the closing of a reorganization). The Distributor may use the fees payable under the Plan to make payments to selling or servicing agents for past sales and distribution efforts, as well as for the provision of ongoing services to shareholders.

The section entitled “Financial Information” on page 102 is hereby amended to add the following:

“Because the Class R shares of the Fund commenced operations on June 18, 2012, no audited financial statements are available with respect to Class R.”

With respect to the information required by Items 14-26 of Form N-1A:

This Statement of Additional Information incorporates by reference the SAI dated December 1, 2011, as supplemented from time to time, which was filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 23, 2011, File No. 811-09253, on Form N-1A, accession no. 0001081400-11-000180.

With respect to the information required by Item 27 of Form N-1A:

This Statement of Additional Information incorporates by reference the audited financial statements for the Fund for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2011, including the notes to the financial statements, and the report of the independent registered public accounting firm thereon contained in the annual report for the Fund, which was filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2011, File No. 811-09253, accession no. 0001193125-11-260060.
