Submission and volunteering

I submitted my site and also submitted application to volunteer. I was rejected as a volunteer because I failed to check my three submitted sites to make sure they weren't listed already... well, i checked, but not good enough. I was at work. Oh well- no biggie... what are the chances that my being a dufus screwed up my submission of my site? should I resubmit a volunter application? Thanks in advance.

Unless you are specificaly told not to reapply in the rejection-email you received you are free to reapply (just make sure that you correct earlier mistakes).

Great- Thanks for the response. I re-submitted my application. I recommend to others that you take your time when filling out the application. Pretend you're applying for a job. That is what I should have done. Its great thet ODP takes it so very seriously.

Exactly. Sometimes I wish our guidelines were written that way.

(Note that I do not control -- or even make recommendations, for the most part -- what applications are accepted.)
