Abstract: We present a sharpening of nondivergence estimates for unipotent (or more generally polynomial-like) flows on homogeneous spaces. Applied to metric Diophantine approximation, it yields precise formulas for Diophantine exponents of affine subspaces of $ \mathbb{R}^{n}$ and their nondegenerate submanifolds.
