The Chronicle of Higher Education has an interactive tool that allows you to find out what a college or university charges for room, board, and tuition. It will also display the data for past years back to 1998. By the way, some of the better fundamentalist schools approximate the costs of their state university systems. You can get a good biblical education for not much more than the cost of a secular education, and maybe for less if you qualify for some kind of a scholarship.
