Abstract
We find exact solutions to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation, for a certain factor ordering. They have the form Ψ=We ±Φ for class A Bianchi models, where Φ is a solution to the classical Hamilton-Jacobi equation, generalizing the only known solution of Moncrief and Ryan for the Bianchi type IX model in standard quantum cosmology. The same kind of solution has also been found in supersymmetric quantum cosmology.
