OPINION AND ORDER
SHIRA A. SCHEINDLIN, District Judge:I. INTRODUCTION
Pharaoh Gonder filed this action against Dollar Tree Stores, Inc. in New York state court alleging that Dollar Tree discriminated against him on the basis of race and retaliated against him. for opposing this alleged discrimination in violation of the New York City Human Rights Law (“NYCHRL”). Dollar Tree removed this action to federal court on diversity grounds, and now moves to dismiss the Complaint and compel arbitration under an arbitration agreement between the parties. For the reasons discussed below, Dollar Tree’s motion to dismiss and compel arbitration is GRANTED.
II. BACKGROUND
A. The Agreement
On December 9, 2014, Gonder commenced employment with Dollar Tree.1 That same day, Gonder electronically signed several forms, including a digital copy of Dollar Tree’s Employee Handbook2 and a Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate Claims (the “Agreement”).3 In the Agreement, Gonder expressly agreed to arbitrate all claims arising out of his em*525ployment with Dollar Tree, or the termination of the same — including claims of discrimination or retaliation.4 The Agreement sets forth that “Dollar Tree’s offer of employment ... is conditioned on and made in consideration of this Agreement.” 5 While Gonder’s electronic signature appears on the Agreement, Gonder does not recall signing it.6
B. Procedural Background
Dollar Tree terminated Gonder’s employment in January 2015.7 Gonder then filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”), claiming racial discrimination and retaliation.8 Gonder’s EEOC complaint was automatically dual-filed with the New York State Division of Human Rights (“DHR”); however, Gonder (proceeding pro se) filed a separate and duplicative complaint with the DHR in February 2015.9 Dollar Tree submitted a Statement of Position to the DHR substantively responding to Gon-der’s discrimination claims on April 13, 2015. This letter notes that “by responding to this complaint of discrimination, [Dollar Tree] does not waive, and hereby preserves, any and all substantive and procedural defenses that may exist to the complaint of discrimination and the Complainant’s allegations.”10
Gonder later retained counsel.11 Through counsel, Gonder requested and received a right-to-sue letter from the EEOC.12 Gonder then requested the DHR dismiss both of Gonder’s DHR complaints for administrative convenience via letter on May 11, 2015.13 The DHR claims were dismissed on June 23, 2015. In its Order dismissing Gonder’s claims, the DHR noted that “[t]he Complainant intends to pursue federal remedies in court, in which forum all the issues concerning the question of discrimination charged can be resolved.” 14
Plaintiff subsequently filed a civil action in New York Supreme Court, Bronx County.15 Defendant removed to this Court on diversity grounds on September 23, 2015.16 This motion to dismiss and compel arbitration followed.
III. LEGAL STANDARD AND APPLICABLE LAW
On a motion to compel arbitration, “the court applies a standard similar to that applicable for a motion for summary judgment.” 17 “If undisputed facts in the record require[ ] the issue of arbitrability to be resolved against the [p]laintiff as a matter of law,” then a district court must compel arbitration.18
*526A. Arbitrability
The determination of whether a dispute is arbitrable under the Federal Arbitration Act19 (“FAA”) consists of two prongs: “(1) whether there exists a valid agreement to arbitrate at all under the contract in question ... and if so, (2) whether the particular dispute sought to be arbitrated falls within the scope of the arbitration agreement.”20 To find a valid agreement to arbitrate, a court must apply the “generally accepted principles of contract law.”21 “[A] party is bound by the provisions of a contract that [it] signs, unless [it] can show special circumstances that would relieve [it] of such obligation.” 22 It is well-established that “arbitration is a matter of contract and a party cannot be required to submit to arbitration any dispute which [it] has not agreed to so submit.”23 A court should consider only “whether there was an objective agreement with respect to the entire contract.”24
Because there is “a strong federal policy favoring arbitration ... where ... the existence of an arbitration agreement is undisputed, doubts as to whether a claim falls within the scope of that agreement should be resolved in favor of arbitrability.” 25 Thus, the Second Circuit has emphasized that
any doubts concerning the scope of arbi-trable issues should be resolved in favor of arbitration. Accordingly, [fjederal policy requires us to construe arbitration clauses as broadly as possible. We will compel arbitration unless it may be said with positive assurance that the arbitration clause is not susceptible of an interpretation that covers the asserted dispute.26
However, although federal policy favors arbitration, it is a matter of consent under the FAA, and “a party cannot be required to submit to arbitration any dispute which [it] has not agreed so to submit.”27 “[I]f federal statutory claims are asserted, [a court] must consider whether Congress intended those claims to be nonarbitra-ble.... ”28 It is well settled that Congress intends Title VII claims to be arbitrable.29
B. Waiver of Agreement to Arbitrate
The FAA requires a court to determine whether an arbitration agreement has been waived and is thereby unenforceable.30 “ ‘[T]here is a strong presumption in favor of arbitration[, and] waiver of the *527right to arbitrate is not to be lightly inferred.’ ”31 “[A]ny doubts concerning whether there has been a waiver are resolved in favor of arbitration.”32
A waiver determination is highly fact specific and no bright line rule is applied, but three factors are considered: “(1) the time elapsed from when the litigation was commenced until the request for arbitration; (2) the amount of litigation to date, including motion practice and discovery; and (3) proof of prejudice.”33 Although an extensive amount of delay between the commencement of an action and request for arbitration may suggest waiver, “delay in seeking arbitration does not create a waiver unless it prejudices the opposing party.”34 • Similarly, the amount of litigation that occurs before an arbitration request will result in waiver only when the substance of that litigation prejudices the opposing party.35 Merely answering on the merits, appearing at hearings, and participating in discovery, without more, will not necessarily constitute a waiver.36 However, “engag[ing] in protracted litigation that prejudices the opposing part/’ will result in a waiver of the right to arbitration.37 Apart from litigation, “the mere involvement of an administrative agency in the enforcement of a statute is not sufficient to preclude arbitration.” 38
Two types of prejudice are possible: substantive prejudice and prejudice due to excessive cost and time delay.
Prejudice can be substantive, such as when a party loses a motion on the merits and then attempts, in effect, to relitigate the issue by invoking arbitration, or it can be found when a party too long postpones [its] invocation of [its] contractual right to arbitration, and thereby causes [its] adversary to incur unnecessary delay or expense.39
IV. DISCUSSION
A. Existence and Validity of the Agreement
Gonder first argues that because he does not recall signing the Agreement, and because Dollar Tree has produced only an unexecuted version of the Agreement, a question of fact exists as to whether Gon-der entered into the Agreement at all. This argument misconstrues the facts— Dollar Tree attached Gonder’s executed arbitration agreement, which clearly carries Gonder’s electronic signature.40 *528Nothing in the record (other than Gonder’s bald assertion to the contrary in his opposition) 41 suggests that this document is anything other than what it appears to be — namely, the executed Agreement between Gonder and Dollar Tree.
Furthermore, Gonder does not allege that he did not sign such an agreement; but that he does not recall signing. A mere assertion that one does not recall signing a document does not, by itself, create an issue of fact as to whether a signature on a document is valid — especially in the absence of any evidence the document was fabricated.42 Indeed, Dollar Tree has provided ample evidence to the contrary. While Gonder does not recall signing the Agreement, Dollar Tree maintains an access log for “CareerLaunch,” the electronic portal on which Dollar Tree maintains its hiring paperwork and through which new employees sign these documents.43 These records indicate Gon-der first accessed the site on December 5, 2014, where he created a unique password for use in signing the documents.44 He then signed the Agreement using this unique password on December 9, 2014— his first day of employment.45 There is no question of fact: Gonder signed the Agreement.
Gonder argues that even if he did sign, an arbitration agreement in an at-will employment contract is unenforceable — as a contract for at-will employment is unsupported by consideration and therefore illusory. While noting (without providing any citations) that “there are some district court decisions in this circuit to the contrary,” 46 Gonder supports his argument with a Missouri Supreme Court case where an arbitration agreement supported only by (1) at-will employment and (2) a mutual agreement to submit claims to arbitration as consideration was held unenforceable.47
Here, however, the consideration supporting the Agreement is not merely continued at-will employment, or reciprocal promises to arbitrate claims, but is instead an offer to commence employment in the first place.48 The Agreement makes clear that Dollar Tree’s offer of employment is conditioned on and made in consideration of the Agreement’s execution. This Court, therefore, need not determine whether an arbitration agreement supported only by continued at-will employment and a mutual agreement to arbitrate claims is valid.49
*529Gonder signed a valid Agreement, and the parties do not dispute that Gonder’s specific claims fall within the scope of that Agreement. The only remaining question is whether Dollar Tree has waived its right to arbitrate.
B. Waiver of Right to Arbitrate
As noted earlier, the Court weighs three factors in determining whether a party has waived its right to arbitration under an arbitration agreement.50 On weighing these factors, it is clear that Dollar Tree has not waived its right to arbitrate, and the Agreement remains binding upon Gonder.
First, very little time has passed between the initiation of this litigation and Dollar Tree’s motion to compel arbitration; indeed, it was the first action taken by Dollar Tree after removing the action to this Court — an action taken a mere week after serving notice of removal.
Second, there has been very little litigation activity to date, and what activity has occurred is not the type of activity that can create a waiver of a right to arbitrate. Dollar Tree’s participation in the EEOC and DHR investigations, while engaging Gonder’s claims on their merits, is not considered “litigation” for the purposes of determining waiver.51 And the mere act of removing Gonder’s claim from state to federal court52 is hardly the sort of “aggres-siv[e] participación] in litigation”53 that gave rise to waiver in the case Gonder cited to support his position.
Third, and finally, Gonder suffers no prejudice by arbitrating his claims. No costly discovery has taken place. No extensive briefing has been undertaken by the parties. Gonder has not been required to participate in lengthy litigation, and Dollar Tree is not attempting to utilize the Agreement to escape an adverse substantive finding by this Court. Gonder does not argue that he is prejudiced by Dollar Tree’s motion to compel arbitration in his opposition papers, and this is sensible: At such an early stage of the litigation, there simply is no prejudice suffered.
Dollar Tree promptly sought enforcement of the Agreement after engaging in minimal litigation activity that neither pro-eedurally nor substantively prejudices Gonder. Merely responding to a complaint made to an administrative agency, or engaging in the minimal level of litigation undertaken by Dollar Tree, does not rise to the substantial, prejudicial level of activity required to demonstrate waiver in this Circuit. Dollar Tree therefore has not waived its rights under the Agreement, and Gonder is bound to its terms — he must seek relief from an arbitrator, not from this Court.
*530V. CONCLUSION
For the foregoing reasons, Dollar Tree’s motion to dismiss the complaint and compel arbitration is GRANTED. The Clerk of the Court is ordered to close this motion (Dkt. No. 4) and this case.
