I forget where I read this but Miranda going to college was at least part of why they ended the show. I also think there was probably a feeling that it was time to wrap it up. The standard length of a series in kids television is about 3 20 episode seasons. iCarly went beyond that because of its massive success, but eventually writers run out of ideas and the result is stale episodes that fail to capture the original magic if the series isn't brought to a conclusion at that point. The Simpsons is a classic example of this.
