Rebekah, If it's just the glass that's cracked, no. Similar to iPads and recent iMacs, the MacBook Pro has a glass cover screen that protects the LCD itself. Its held in place with heat sensitive adhesive strips all around the perimeter. Replacement glass can be sourced from many online sale sites and can be replaced by anyone with a hair-dryer, a little patience, a spludger, a couple of guitar picks, some lighter fluid to assist in removing the old adhesive strips and some vinyl gloves as finger prints are particularly difficult to remove from the LCD panel.
