Very bad typo in cover letter - will I get blacklisted at IBs?

Okay so I submitted my application to a BB at 3 a.m. as a non-native English speaker and I somehow put "a" instead of "an" in front of a vowel. Should I resubmit my application? Am I going to get blacklisted because of the mistake?

Thanks in advance for responding.
